Dylan Graduates

Memories from March 5, 2013

The life of the Shens went on and so did their achievements. Sienna for instance, got another promotion, this time to Aquatic Ecosystem Tweaker and a bonus of $1,404!

At the same time, she became a Cooking Master. It was a great moment she will remember forever.

As for Dylan, he became a young adult, an important event he celebrated at home with his parents.

After years of bad mood and adolescense fights, it's a relief to see Dylan turn into a kind young adult.

Finally, it's time to forget those difficult years and embrace the brilliant future of adult age!

As and adult, Dylan has decisions to make, the first one is if he will continue to live with his parents or will move to his own apartment. The second one is if he would look for a job or if he will wait until he returns from the University to start working.

Dylan has, in addition, two more big dreams that are: travel abroad, and pursuit a Science Career. But his Lifetime Wish is to become an Alchemy Artisan.

The day has come! Dylan is heading for the City Hall to pick up his diploma at the Aurora Skies High School Graduation Ceremony.

Sienna and Lei joined their son with great pride.

Congratulations! Dylan has graduated from the Natural and Nutritious Learning Academy with the highest honors! He has been selected as Valedictorin of his Class for his outstanding school performance. His classmates voted him The Most Likely to Conquer the World. The future is bright for this young graduate!

  Sometimes, long hours of study and doing homework are really worth it. Being a Valedictorian is an honor to remember for the rest of the life.

Meanwhile, Lei has reached the highest level of Handiness skill. Hours of practice and study finally have paid off.

As a reward now that he is a Level 10 of Handiness, Lei will get a good discount in all the items he buys from now on.

But let's go back with Dylan.,, Finally he seems to have won his beloved Karen's heart. Just on the day of his graduation, she confessed to him that she was also in love with him and that she had broken up with his boyfriend Arvin. Now Dylan's happiness is complete.

Dylan and Karen are sweethearts already, but tehy have not yet formalized their relationship. Dylan still has to pursue a career at the University and Karen must become a young adult, since she's still a teen now.

Other of the great things Dylan got when he became and adult was his own car. His parents gave it to him as a reward for his excellent grades, and because during his adolescence he put all his effort in his driving lessons. They say the first car is like the first love -- it's never forgotten!

Speaking of first love... A few days before Dylan left for the University, Karen changed her look. Dylan of course loved the change.

 Karen and Dylan went out to the pub to celebrate, obviously, being Karen still underage, the only drink they had was a soda.

 

When he's not with Karen, Dylan dedicates himself to his second interest, Alchemy. He practices every day mixing potions and recently reached Level 10. Now he can create lots of elixirs, this is, three elixirs for each mix.

One of his most recent discoveries was the elixir of Potent Personality Adjustor.

Dylan and Karen, dancing together for the first time at the Winter Festival. They didn't even feel the snow that was falling! Few things are more romantic in life that the very first time you share a slow dance with that special someone...

Achievements continue for Dylan. Today he learned to fix dishes sweetened with honey.

And the fantastic decorated egg that Dylan found at the Festival already adorns the Shen's living room.

 Sienna wasn't far behind. She just reached Level 10 of Gardening, a great achievement in the botanical science and agriculture. Few gardeners can boast produce that looks and tastes as fresh as Sienna's crop. Well done!

 Dylan just learned to prepare Firecracker Tofu and is ready to study a pudding recipe.

 

He had a lot of time to study, since he stayed locked at home for several days due to the flu and bee sting. These setbacks also prevented him from going out to look for a job, but soon he will do.

Karen's visit cheered up Dylan. He's kind of impatient for her to become an adult so they can go steady and possibly move in together.

And the day finally arrived. Karen Helgason became a young adult. There is nothing stopping her and Dylan from formalizing their relationship now.

Dylan moved to a house not far from his parents'. He wanted to invite them to know it on that same day, but it was raining heavily. That's how Spring in Aurora Skies, and Dylan's new life began.

too.

Karen didn't care about the rain. She didn't want to wait to visit her beloved Dylan. She hasn't moved in with him yet, but they'll be able to spend a lot of time together here.

Dylan and Karen. Alone at last...

It has been a long winter, but Dylan and Karen didn't even feel it.

Karen spends a lot of time at Dylan's apartment, sometimes she stays the night there. You could say they practically live together already. A very important step for their relationship.

Dylan enjoys cooking very much. He always has a new dish in the menu for his dear girlfriend.

Life goes by happily for the young couple. But soon it will be time for Dylan to go back to his studies. He must start  building the future...
