Once upon a time, Albia had 7 males and only two females in it. So the
hand decided it would pick two nice norns, Ariadne and Cliff, and send
them together on a honeymoon adventure hoping they will mate. Well, just in
case, the male norn's father, Buzz was elected to go as chaperone as well
as company if something happened the other norn. The hand sent them all
three up the elevator into the desert.
Things seemed fine until they jumped off the platform and then it was
chaos. They kept wandering off by themselves, Ariadne prefered to go left,
and Buzz and Cliff would go right and get in the little boat and head for
the volcano. No matter how hard the hand pushed or coaxed, they would go in
opposite directions. The hand had to bring them back to the left and they
would go back to the volcanic island. Ariadne, whenever she decided to go
to the seaside, it was to jump into the sea. The hand had to save the
contrary couple from drowning several times, and they still seemed to enjoy
it. No matter how many times the hand put them together after their
drowning escapades, they would still wander off alone. So the hand left
them awhile with some scarlet pufferfish in the sea and attended to the
other norns.
When the hand came back, it found them reasonably close to each other in
the desert, so the hand gradually pushed them both into the elevator on the
left. Buzz was sent back to the incubator room, because Cliff seemed
distracted by him. Finally after ten minutes, the hand got them both down a
level to the little alcove where the science kit implement was. The hand
made sure there was a drink vending machine and brought food for them
there.Once again they were in different corners of the narrow space there.
The hand gave up pushing them and decided to let them be there for sometime
alone.
The hand came back ten minutes later, and to it's delight found them
kissing passionately! Then Ariadne became pregnant alright, and the hand
looked after her during her pregnancy. She wasn't very sickly during that
time, and soon gave birth to another male named Craig. He was always
smiling at his parents and was generally good natured. The hand then
decided it was time they explored more of Albia together, now that they
were closer to each other. So it sent them up in the lift again and pushed
them left towards the wooden bridge.
Craig was sent back to the incubator room for education and to have more
playmates to teach him things. Ariadne and Cliff again had some wandering
off sessions, but at least it wasn't so far away from each other as before.
But they were constantly tired with the hand pushing them and lack of food on
the wooden bridge and fell asleep frequently, so it was a very slow process pushing
them together all the time. After about twenty minutes, the hand got them into the
elevator on the left of the bridge and pushed the "down" button. Then they were in
another smaller room. The hand left them there while attending to a sick norn.
When it came back, to it's chagrin, Cliff had used the elevator to get himself
up again! But it wasn't quite as difficult to get him back down, and push
the elevator away from that floor. The hand then scouted around for food
for them and decided to get them to the part of Albia where lots of mushrooms
and fruit grew, on the right. The only way there was to get them down another
level and walk towards the right, and take that lift down and push them left
where all the food was. So, the hand got them down another level. It couldn't
push them towards the right somehow, and left them there awhile. When it came back, it was
horrified to find Cliff in what looked like water on the left of that room
and sitting there alone. Surprisingly, he wasn't drowning, though, and the
hand relaxed a little.
Now, the problem was getting him out of the hole, where he had fallen and
gotten stuck in. Ariadne was on the right on dry ground. The only way out
of the hole was to get into the trampoline and bounce his way out. The hand
got him there, but unfortunately he bounced the wrong way and got himself
on the ledge on the left. And no norn can come back right without falling
into the hole again. That's just what he did after a short nap. Then, to
the hand's dismay, Ariadne joined him and fell into the hole!
Frustrated, the hand took a break and left them, since they were in no
danger of drowning. When the hand came back, it tried again to get them out.
Cliff kept being bounced left towards the dead end, and Ariadne bounced right
towards safety, but since Cliff was left, she kept coming back and falling into the
hole to get to Cliff. Finally, after what seemed like hours, the hand
managed to get them both on the right side and firmly pushed them towards
the elevator. There was a teleporter next to it, and the hand pushed them
further in. Then it got Ariadne down first and then pushed Cliff (who could
be very stubborn and refuse to move) persistantly from the teleporter to
the lift until he went down as well.
Then the hand pushed them left where the food was and got the elevator up
so that it would prevent them from getting out too quickly. Cliff moved
towards the food, but Ariadne wasn't too interested in anything but
sleeping. So hand then left them there. It came back to check on them a few
times and found them enjoying themselves there although they did not stay
together nor kiss again. So the hand left them again.
The next time it came back, to it's utmost surprise, it couldn't find
Ariadne anywhere around the vicinity, although Cliff was still at the
shroom patch. It searched the floor above where it had left the elevator,
but still couldn't find her. Then it saw the teleporter and guessed that
Ariadne had got herself up a floor and then cleverly used the teleporter to
get herself back into the incubator room. It rushed back to the room, and
sure enough, found Ariadne serenely talking to the other norns there. What
a relief for the hand!
Since it was so troublesome to get her all the way to Cliff again, the hand
decided it might as well bring Cliff back. So it exported and imported Cliff
and got him back. Then the hand decided that it would send them down a level
and let them stay there by themselves instead.The next time the hand came
back, about twenty minutes later, it finally found them kissing again. This
time a great celebration was held in Albia, for Ariadne finally after
four hours since her last baby, gave birth to another much needed female
baby named Dalia. And they lived happily ever after.
