Once Upon A Time

When Eleanor Clairmont runs from her stepmother's cruelty for the third time, she has just two things in mind; getting a better life for her and her step sister, and reuniting with a man she met the last time she ran away. While she quickly succeeds with the former, the latter is not so easy, with a potentially devastating war looming over the horizon. Eventually living a double life and trying desperately to hide her past that holds the key to her happily-ever-after, Eleanor and her search for freedom and true love sets off a chain of events that hold the possibility of saving the kingdom, or tearing it, and the Almirisian Royal Family, apart.

I regret to say that this story has been discontinued on account of poor quality writing and extreme plot overhauls. For those who enjoyed this story and would still like to read my Sims 2 stories, I will soon be posting a new story.

Some Enchanted Evening

Some Enchanted Evening

Elle and James reunited, things seemed to progress smoothly for them... for the most part.  People started to grow suspicious. Annalise, King Hubert, and Katherine found it somewhat strange that both James and "Margarete" would disappear at the same time, however Katherine knew that James did not love her, and probably never would, nor would she ever reciprocate non-existent feelings. Even with their hard ships, the two began to fall in love, and James realized that Elle was exactly the woman that he wanted for his queen. As time went on, the lovers found it increasingly difficult to find time to meet, especially was the Winter Ball drew near.

There's something familiar about her.

There's something familiar about her.

Prince James paced endlessly around the library, trying in vain to make sense of what he'd seen. How could his Elle possibly be here? He'd searched for her for months before his father forced him to quit and get ready for his arranged marriage to Katherine.  It seemed as if she had literally shown up on his doorstep, and in a bizarre twist of fate had been enlisted as his fiance's new lady-in-waiting. It seemed too good to be true, and when things seem too good to be true, they usually are.

Unexpected.

Unexpected



During the months following the Queen's death, James's squire Selven was knighted by the King, and decided to spend his time defending the Southern Border of Almiris from the hostile and greedy King of Bovia. King George had long had his eyes on the vast resources and wealth of Almiris, and with King Hubert distraught over his beloved wife's death, George felt that he had an easy target.

A Royal Arrangment

 A Royal Arrangement. 

Although the Queen did recover, her health was never the same. The doctors told the King that his beloved queen had tuberculosis, and that she would physically be fragile for the rest of her life.  The disease quickly robbed the Queen of her strength, but she insisted on spending as much time in the garden as possible, resting many hours on the bench where she and the King had fallen in love. 

Unfortunately, as Summer breathed its last, so did the fragile Queen. A servant found her laying in a bed of wildflowers next to the wooden bench, the life gone from her eyes and her heart long still. 


Aside from the King and their children, no one was hit by the Queen's untimely death more than her former Lady-in-Waiting Elizaveta, now the head of the Royal Household. The Queen had been her dearest friend, and in fact it was she who found the lifeless Queen when she failed to come to dinner. 

A month of kingdom-wide mourning followed the death of their beloved Queen.

The King, stripped of the true love he once enjoyed, began in earnest to find suitable matches for his two children, so that they might also know true love before it was too late. In particular he kept up correspondence with King Edward of Soluna. King Edward ruled another very large and prosperous kingdom, and was also graced with a beautiful daughter, his pride and joy and only heir after his queen died in childbirth. Princess Katherine was charming, well read, eloquent, gracious, a true princess. She had also served as acting queen ever since she was old enough to help her father. She was an ideal match to marry James and become the kingdom's next queen when King Hubert gave the crown to his son in one year's time.

Once and For All

Once and For All

A bounty hunter found Elle at the tavern a few days later, kidnapping her in the dead of night and forcing her back to her family's crumbling manor. When Elle came face to face with the woman she hoped to never see again, she scowled furiously at her. Regina, for her part, looked like she wanted to murder Elle.  Frankly, Elle didn't care. "How dare you forget your place, you ragged servant girl." she said, her voice dangerously low.

Elle wanted to slap her. "I am a free person, and I can go and do as I please." Elle snapped.

Regina laughed and slapped her. "A free person? Mark my words Girl. You are nothing but a dirty servant girl. That is all you have ever been and that is all you will ever be."

"Don't tell me what I can be." Elle snapped. "I left once, I'll leave again." 
 

Regina roughly grabbed Elle and wrapped a brass chain with an amber pendant around her neck. The instant the exposed amber touched her skin Elle felt her magic float away into nothingness. "A containment and anti-aggression charm should remind you of your place Cinderella. You will NEVER leave this house again."
