"We're expecting!"

Zoe was thrilled to announce that she was again expecting. Kourtney was also expecting. Ridge congratulated her tribe sisters and prepared for the coming sacrifices.

"I can't wait for the babies to be born. My future tribe is already starting to grow." Almond boasted.

"Almond, you're not creator yet. In fact you..."

"But isn't it inevitable? I am your daughter. Your only child. Who else would you pick to take over."

Ridge sighed. She had other things to attend to rather than have this common discussion with Almond.  Ridge had grown up in a brutal tribe. All her sisters basically had to fight for the right to be the next creator. Her third oldest sister had won that right, much to the dismay of her older sisters. Ridge hoped to open up the options too all her tribe, and pick based on more than birth right or strength. So Ridge turned her attention to providing for the tribe and awaiting the new arrivals.

Zoe had her baby first.
"Victoria. That's what I'll name her. She has given me great joy and victory!"

"I'm truly glad for you Zoe. Of all the women I've ever known, you deserved this the most." Ridge congratulated.

That same day was Nate's birthday. He was finally becoming a young adult. Ridge granted him some time to celebrate and visit his mother. Now that he was of age, he could become a possible breeder.

Finally, that night, Kourtney had her son. She named him Lukas.

"I, and the goddess, thank you for your contribution to the tribe. As you have had a son, Lukas will be sent and raised by Ash at the slave camp. You may take him there when you are ready, and go to live at away camp." Ridge stated, "May you find happiness in your service there."

So Kourtney took Lukas to the slave camp and moved to live at the away camp. There she helped Krystal raise Jaclyn, but spent most of her time in her research.

Meanwhile, things were normal as usual at main camp. Until Fernanda visited one evening with some news.

"Creator! Ash is requesting you. He says he has some important news." Kourtney exclaimed.

"Is everything alright? Okay, I'm coming. Almond, no you cannot come. Stay here." Ridge followed Kourtney.

"Ridge!"

"Ash? What is it?"

"I've been helping Kourtney with her research, and we've been trekking further to the west and came across a new tribe in the area." Ash explained.

"Oh! A large tribe? We'll just have to keep our distance and..."

"Well, that's just it. It's not just any tribe. It's your sister!"

Stay tuned!
