The document introduces the Nugen family, the first household in the Royal Kingdom of Celestia simulation. Kimmie Nugen lives with her son Keith and husband Armando. Armando works at the colosseum while Kimmie cares for Keith and befriends a local merchant's wife, Ruby Coldwell. The family grows with the birth of a second son, Marcus. Kimmie dreams of opening a flower shop someday while raising her family and interacting with the community in the kingdom of Celestia.

1. The Royal Kingdom of
Celestia
A Sims 2 RKC
Chapter 1: Nugen Family

2. A/N: My laptop of 10 years died. Yep, and the sims I have
backed up can’t seem to be installed onto the Mac. So
basically 3 generations in to Avonlea and it’s dead. Yeah I’m
pretty devastated. However, I want to complete one of these
RKC challenges so badly and by golly I’m trying again.
So welcome to the Royal Kingdom of Celestia. Let’s meet our
first peasant household the Nugen’s.

3. Everyone meet Kimmie Nugen and her son Keith. Apparently
these sims have really bad depth perception cause that crib
is not lined up with the bed. (It is not I who lack depth
perception. Nope it’s the sims yep.)

4. Kimmie’s father had arranged for her to marry the son of a family
friend named Armando. He had obtained a good job in the
colosseum and had high hopes of becoming a champion.
It didn’t take the two long before they were expecting their first
child.

5. Armando religiously visited the tea room in the ancient
temple at the center of town. His wife attended with him
as was expected, but she had not been brought up in a
home where weekly attendance had been required. It
was an adjustment.

6. And before the couple knew it, their first
child had made it’s appearance in the
kingdom.

7. Kimmie met Ruby Coldwell one of the founding merchants wives
a few months after moving to Reefside and the birth of Keith.
Honestly, the two women did not really hit it off. However,
Kimmie was an ambitious lady and knew she’d never achieve
anything without befriending the higher classes….

8. Therefore, Kimmie invites Ruby over to her
small home several times a week over the
coming months for cake and tea.

9. Before long Kimmie is pregnant again with her second child.
Her husband Armando seemed excited about the news. At
least if his autonomously rubbing her belly was a sign then
he was.

10. Armando was actually a pretty good father to young Keith. At
least when he wasn’t working at the colosseum entertaining
the people of Celestia he would take a few hours with his son
so Kimmie could slip off for a bit.

11. He even took time to teach
his young son to walk.

12. The lady of the house hadn’t really progressed much towards
opening a flower shop. She was still only growing daisies
and the family couldn’t possibly afford to pay the rent to own
a stall or shop in the market square. One day.

13. Before either of them knew it Keith had
grown into a strapping young lad.

14. He seemed quite interested in the comings and goings of
the kingdom. He was always asking about what had
happened at the assembly meetings Armado attended.

15. He did his chores and helped out around
the house without complaint which was a
very nice perk indeed.

16. Especially since there was now a new little one about the
house. Kimmie and Armando welcomed their second and
last child to the family at the end of the rotation. A second
son they named Marcus.

17. Armando headed into the heart of Celestia at the end of the
rotation to report the family’s progress to their liege Lord
Lampright and to pay the family’s tribute as required.

18. With Keith off to school and with little Marcus asleep Kimmie
found herself trying to decide if she would invite Ruby over
for tea or spend the afternoon working in her
garden/arranging flowers….

19. So that’s where rotation one of the Nugen family ends. I
hope you all enjoyed meeting these two. They’re a sweet
couple, but then again Popularity sims do usually make good
parents. See you soon!
