The Lonely River Sims are stories written about the Sims in my current Legacy Challenge.
The neighbourhood of Lonely River started out as a nice little community of farmers. Nice handy river, green grass,
friendly community. Naturally, as always happens, word got out about this prime piece of real estate and development
companies began to muscle in and buy up land. There are a few genuine farms sticking it out but the majority were bought
out. The land is now being gradually developed into estates - tasteful, well-spaced out estates but estates nevertheless.
There's a tiny town area evolving as well with the obligatory tall buildings (or at least what passes for tall buildings
in Lonely River).
After finishing college the founder of this legacy, Aneleh Legacy, moved to the neighbourhood of Lonely River and
started her career and family. To read her story and the stories of her descendants start at Chapter 1 and work your way up.

“Alex!†she squealed and ran down to hug her best friend.
“Hey Margaret… uh, sis,†he said hesitantly. She punched him on the arm.
“Ow, what was that for?†he asked, rubbing his arm in mock pain.
“Just for not telling me the second you found out. Now we’re even,†she said airily.
“Women!†Alex said, throwing his hands up in the air. He dodged another punch and ran into the house, Margaret hot on his heels.

Lonely River Sims: Margaret Legacy
With her mother gone, a clueless father and an annoying little brother sharing her room, Margaret’s life as a teenager is off to a pretty disappointing start. Isn’t there anybody on her side?
“Hello? Mummy? It’s Margaret…†<click>
Jane-5 had come through on her promise to get Margaret her mother’s phone number, but so far it hadn’t helped Margaret at all. She’d been trying to call Tamara for days and each time she called she’d been hung up on. At first Tamara had babbled something about grilled cheese before hanging up, but 12 calls later she’d skipped directly to the hanging up part.
