Part 1

New theme for February 2022:

Super excited to partner with Minraed, She hosts a storytelling workshop on her twitch. I believe they are done on Sunday AM. I had a fab experience hanging out in there and when she gave this WOD I knew right away it would be the theme. Such a fun one with lots of places to go! (Min would like to note that the sim is the creation of her Murkiness BrennachanSims).
