Welcome!

I'm developing Town of Galucca from wasteland to a thriving city. On this blog you can join the journey through 200 years. I'll post weekly on the progress, but you will mostly learn about the progress through the stories of local residents. I think there might be 5 generations to go, let's find out! :)

This is a spin-off blog from my Greench Farm legacy.

All my stories (and more) are now gathered from my new blog, Simmerville's Sims.

Moon District Households

[Year count 100]   So, the eastern district is called Moon District. You may wonder why, because can't the moon be seen from all of Galucca's districts? Did it ever fall down in this district? Answers would be Yes, of course and Of course not! But the first family settling here 100 years earlier, back when Galucca was established, was the Moonsters. Now, some think they actually got their family name because of residing in the Moon District. Others say the district was named after them. I'm sorry that I can't say which came first...


This district is the more misty, hidden part of Galucca. No trades nor production took place up here, at least nothing that was recorded by the tax collectors. Where Moon Trail (the dusty road) ends, is where a bed & breakfast named Seagull Cottage will be built on or about Year count 120 (20 years from this tour). But beyond this address, there are still some residential lots to be reached only by foot. This primitive privacy attracted sims with a more alternative look at life.

Let me add, in case you never heard of Seagull Cottage before - it's a separate story that will start once the building of Galucca is completed, and reaches our time (Year count 200, we're half way there!).

Back when the first Count Gustavo shared the countship between his 3 children, the only daughter Lady Esphella Pettonta got this eastern part, which was considered very low value. She might have been involved with magic, and some say that's what killed her. She had a daughter with some sailor, and the girl Luphelia was still just a teen when her mom was found dead in the deep well. Luphelia grew up with the original Moonster household.

Now for the 3 current households, 100ya:


Gerda Q. & Simon Moonster reside the oldest house. Simon is son of the original Moonster couple. They had just one son, Detch. He looks young adult on this photo, it might have been his birthday. This household is poor, Simon is an Angler and Gerda grows a tiny garden. Nobody ever saw her selling crops at the Old Town Market, so maybe she use it all for homely recipes. Magic, anyone?

Aliens have been visiting their garden at night, but it's not the first time this district had extraordinary visitors, and most residents are pretty open minded.


Luphelia P. & Don Moonster reside just behind the original Moonster house, where they both grew up. She married Don (Simon's younger brother), and they moved into and expanded the old house that late Esphella Pettonta left behind. Luphelia and Don have 2 lovely daughters, Esmia (teen) and Gloria.

Don works at the Marine Science Facility, which is just a quick walk. Luphelia is a homemaker, but she also is said to be a leading member of the regional secret society, MSW, including a few rituals of the past. It's secret, so how would I know... ;-)

Luphelia is cousin to Count Gustavian Pettonta of Galucca, but they never speak. She most likely is raised to stay away from the Pettontas, anyway...


Camille P. & Edwin Kragger moved in quite recently. They reside 3 Moon Trail which is next lot to what is to become the Seagull Cottage Bed & Breakfast. This is one of the first private homes with a fireplace. Galucca only had Summer this far, and heating is not needed. Camille and Edwin need the fireplace for mixing their magical remedies, though.

Camille heard about the MSW, and also Edwin is into that kind of stuff. They also grow some food. They are not totally acquainted with the locals yet, much because of Camille's modern style for the time. Against all traditions she cut her hair short (lengthy hair was the norm to signalize whether a woman was married or not - as soon as someone married they added a ribbon or cloth, while a woman with "no hair strings" was free). This short hair broke with the established routines. Camille also wears more heavy makeup than most women of this time. She might not expect to fit in over night...

Camille and Edwin have 1 daughter, Carla, and 1 son Perrie.


Yay - done with the 3 districts! From now on, the updates will be more community/castle/politics/conflicts/mysteries/town builds focused (phew!)
