Welcome to the world of Aeterna, and thank you for reading! This story has been living rent free in my head for the last four years, so I decided it was time to finally get it out. I hope you guys love it as much as I do. There's extra info on my simblr: aeternalsims ❤️
Finnick and Carlo will be getting an update too, but only in the adult form (as far as I have planned), so we'll see them soon. 😌

This one took me a few days to commit to, but Alex got the refresh he desperately deserves. He turned out gorgeous and I am SO happy with him, so, Alex Rovell, everyone. ✨

And now for my absolute FAVORITE, the brilliant and beautiful Cassiela. 😍 I am so obsessed with her makeover, I'm about ready to go on a side quest just to give her more screentime.

Next up is Quinn, who desperately needed a refresh. She was probably my most neglected character, because she just barely ever shows up. We'll be seeing more of her soon, so she got a makeover. 😌

I AM SO EXCITEDDDD! Next update is coming up, so I'm going to re-introduce the newly refreshed (teenage) characters.😌 Starting with the least drastic changes.

Luna and Audriel got a minor refresh to make them more realistic, but no major changes on them.

Refreshing the vibes for the next update ✨ Sooo obsessed with the new preset. Everything looks SO good.

I'm done after this, I swear. Then I will leave y'all alone until the next update. Just had to enjoy these old photos before I deleted them again. 😂

I'm not saying you need to have mods to have pretty sims, I'm just saying I can't believe they used to look like that. 😂
September 28, 2026 at 6:15 PM
Alright, last couple photos: Glow Ups ✨

Here's the first appearance of a couple familiar faces! Finnick didn't show up until after Aeterna did, though the character he's with already existed! You won't meet her for a looooong time. And there's Quinn, who is virtually unchanged. 👀

Aeterna was dreamt up in July 2023, and Alex (still Phaedra, at this point) was originally a knight from a common family. Where'd that storyline end up? 😂
September 28, 2026 at 4:49 AM
THE OG Luna and Alex, before I used mods. I've played Sims since it first came out, but I didn't use mods until the middle of 2023. Soooo 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦. 😂
September 28, 2026 at 4:46 AM
The very first picture ever taken of Luna and Alex. Alex was named Phaedra at this point. 😂

I got a new laptop today and it connected me back to my OneDrive, which blessed me with pictures from the OG versions of this story that had been long deleted off my old laptop. Y'all wanna see some horrors? 😂

"What's the most controversial thing you do in your writing in 2026?"

Sometimes I like to acknowledge nuance in my writing.

This is a cutesy little story that I write because it fills my cup, but I'm a political writer elsewhere on the internet. Nuance is a hard one to get away with these days.

𝘎𝘰𝘥𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘴, that took all day. I'm splitting this scene up into two parts because I didn't realize how long it got.

More fun now that we have a little back story? 👀

As always, excited to hear what you think! 💖 The second part will be posted. Definitely. 😂

"You said you would have your work cut out for you."

"Right?" Audriel drawled, taking a slow step toward me.

"Let us find out… if you would like to get out of the maze before dark!" I shot him one last smile, watched his eyes widen, then took off running.
September 24, 2026 at 10:40 PM
𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥.

"How fast can you run?" I purred, biting my lip flirtatiously as I took yet another step away of the pergola.

"I beg your pardon?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at me, but I could not help but notice that his voice lowered, and he looked intrigued.
September 24, 2026 at 10:08 PM
I turned my lips up in the most perfect, sugary sweet smile I could manage. "You do not know your way out of the maze, I presume?"

He stood, cocking his head to one side, preparing himself for something. "I… do not," he said slowly.
September 24, 2026 at 9:53 PM
"If what they say about you is true, then I have my work cut out for me."

"Your work?" I cooed, taking a step toward the entrance.

"I am to be your personal guard, as I understand it," he admitted, narrowing his eyes suspiciously

𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵.

I wanted to think him pretentious, but his demeanor was so gentle. Perhaps he was someone I should like to know after all.

I chewed on my lip to hold back a smile, smoothing my dress as I stood up from the table. "Oh, but most of them are true," I cautioned him.
September 24, 2026 at 9:38 PM
"𝘕𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨?" I gasped playfully. "I am surprised my court has not talked you to death about me."

"I try not to listen to whispers, my lady. I like to come to my own conclusions about people."
September 24, 2026 at 9:26 PM
Audriel chuckled, shrugging. "That's the gist of it."

"Extraordinary storytelling, Audriel. You paint a vivid picture. I enjoyed it, truly," I laughed. He shook his head, smirking, tapping his finger against his arm in feigned annoyance.

"Alright, 𝘓𝘶𝘯𝘢, what about you? I know nothing of you."
September 24, 2026 at 9:19 PM
"Oh, um… that's a story, but the brief version is that a knight needed a squire, and my father is metalsmith, so I was the nearest child that knew anything about a sword."

"You just happened to be there, and now you are in Summersong falling into my bushes. That is what you are going with?"
September 24, 2026 at 8:09 PM
"I truly cannot be bothered to care, Audriel. My governess concerns herself enough with that for everyone," I said, waving it off. "I only ask because I am curious how you came to be here."
