The Gardens, 1:23 PM, Magic Realm.
Glimmerbrook, 1:35 PM. Heatwave summer day. Sunbeams breaking through the trees.
After all these years Noëlle was finally ready to enter the Magic Realm.
The Magic Realm is truly een magic place! Its so beautiful... takes your breath away everywhere you look.
To my sweet Noëlle Marlowe,
I leave you Hawthorne estate. My humble abode. I know you loved visiting me here and hope you keep reminiscing the good times we spend here together. All the stuff I've learned you about plants and herbs. If you ever decide to light the magical fire you have inside, this would be the best place for you to do it. My dear, I will linger in you memories and wish you nothing but happiness in this small little town.
Love you always, Auri.
Noelle walked up the driveway from her grandmother's cottage in Glimmerbrook. Tucked away in the mountains near the city of Windenburg. Where she once lived with her mother. They weren't particularly close. Noëlle's grandmother Auri (Aurelia Minerva Hawthorne) always knew that her grandchild was blessed with the gift of Magic. Noëlle's mother never understood (the gene skipped a generation) so Aurelia learned her granddaughter all she could. Noëlle spend most of her time at Glimmerbrook but needed to finish college before she could ever permanently relocate.
Years later Aurelia fell ill and Noëlle took care of her with her mother. She passed away on a cool summer morning. Filled with sadness and grief Noëlle's mother vowed to not visit her estate ever again. Which was the final straw for Noëlle. She packed her bags and left the big city behind to start a new one in Glimmerbrook.
Glimmerbrooks Falls, 3:35PM.
Can't interact with the mushroom but they look super cute in this world! I really like the backdrop behind the magic portal. Gives me a vibe that we're in the mountains and Windenburg isn't that far away. Great for storytelling purposes.
Casters Alley, 2:10 PM, Magic Realm.
For all your potions, herbs and... familiars?
My personal opinion: It would have been more fun if we could only 'earn' familiars through progression of the magic skills. You can fairly easy buy them at Casters Alley. Also; you can't interact with them...? They're super cute(!) so I have no idea why they made them like this? I would have been fun to at least have some interactions rodents have
World.
the small town in the mountains is called Glimmerbrook and is similar in size to Forgotten Hollow. It has some vibes of granite falls with the pine trees and all which I love. the fact that its similar can give a good background for storytelling purposes. In my ‘imagiation’ it near to the city of Windenburg. The world has a lovely mix of green lushy trees and lots of flowers with boulders spread out through it. The waterfalls are breathtaking espcially the one that leads up to the magic portal.
Personal opinion: I dislike that the ‘driveways’ are so big in comparison to the lot sizes. It compells you to build a sizable manor rather than a smaller forrest cottage in my opinion. You can still build a forrest cottage but it will feel out of place due to the big driveways. Is this a hint that we can expect cars in the future? ;)
