The Kiah Family

I had one of the best OHOL experiences I've ever had! (Albeit on of the least productive)

I was an Eve in a (semi)decent spot and all my babies deserted me except for Hope Kiah. As a baby, she heard the bell chime and we were surprised by how close it was! When she was grown, we set off south towards the bell. I had a son along the way, but sadly he died from starvation when he couldn't be fed. (Sorry son. I love you.) Soon after I was killed by a wolf that lunged at me from behind a tree. (I still have a grudge against that wolf. Evil thing.) Hope promised she would continue the journey on her own.

I was then reborn in a city and named Wolf. I set off to make stew. After years of stew making, there comes Hope, claiming she came from far up North! I told her who I was and we were both so surprised! I was even able to meet my grand-babies and great-grand-babies as time progressed! I have to admit, I spent a good deal of my second life talking, which is unusual for me. (I am usually the hard-working no-breaks compost guy.) It really is situations like these that make the game for me though.

Hope, if you see this: Thank you so much for being so awesome! I'm so proud of you! Because of you, the Kiah line lived on. It was a pleasure playing with you!

Ps. To the person I promised I would make stew: I'm terribly sorry. I failed you. I did pass the gauntlet before i stopped, but I'm unsure if they continued themselves. Again, I sincerely apologize. Thank you for teaching me how though! I will definitely take that knowledge with me in future lives.

I almost ran off into the woods to die when I was born, but you were so insistent on catching me that I felt bad for running.  Wasn't thrilled you named me Hope, though. 
And then the bell tolled and I thought, "well, at least we can always go to the city".

Leading us on the journey to the big city was exciting.  You and my little brother, tagging along behind me as I led the way - we had big hopes for what was to come. 

Then Ezra died. 

And then the wolf attacked. 

I was crushed and I almost gave up.  How could I go on after my Mama had died in my arms?

But with the city so close, I just knew I had to make it.  So, I mourned the loss of the only family I ever had as I trudged across the dangerous terrain.  I couldn't even count the number of times I nearly died - snakes, boars, wolves, and two bears!  I was actually trapped between the two bears for quite a while.  Sadly, two of my children were born during that time, and met their sad end as a result.  Sorry babies.

Eventually, a strange man on a horse road by me.  I called out to him.  He reassured me that I was close to the big city, and then gave me his horse and told me to keep going.

Against all odds, I made it!  And just as I did, I gave birth to my sweet little Evelynn, who I named after you, Mama.

I was so excited that I had made it, I wanted to tell everyone in town.  I was an immigrant to the city - I had traveled so far, and I finally made it!

I was completely stunned when you said you were my mother - you looked much older than I would have expected you to be.  Apparently my journey lasted longer than I had realized.

Normally I am a workhorse, but after having spent the vast majority of my life traveling to get to the city, I just wanted to relax.  So, I spent the rest of my days trying to find myself a husband (Tonny - you missed out), and showing off my awesome backpack that was definitely better than everyone else's.

That was a good life.  I enjoyed playing with you as well!

Re: The Kiah Family

I do vaguely remember her arriving although just assumed you came from one of our satellite villages.

Was that the city with a library in. It had a few different families andI lived a couple lives there. Was a good city.
