History: Tartosa in Tredony

(Year 229) Region 3 was created as early as in Year 2 and is commonly named Tredony, after the old Porto Tredony. The old town was an important cargo harbor ever since the Medieval era, benefiting from its deep waters perfect for large ships. They had one of the earliest institutes, and early on students realized that commerce earned more than industry. Tredony county was created in Year 4, but in the early period also the Merchant Prince was powerful. Tredony disapproved on King Baltazar II assigning them with a regional signature crop and flower, they argued they already did very well with their trades.

This region also covers Tartosa and a few small and less populated islands. Tredony town is still the administrative center of Region 3, but Tartosa near by is about to win the tourists over. Tartosa not only provides picturesque wedding venues. The royal family hails from Tartosa and the kingdom's current President, Laurent Pepperstone (LEFT), is from Tredony town. But also the fact that the region's highest nobility, the Count de Tredony, actually a title held by the royal house for 225 years, was always seated in Tartosa and their Castello Tredony has become a tourist attraction. The old building is located just a short walk from the village.

History of Tartosa is not without community highlights (Mazaloom History Book), besides most of the lots have their own story up to the current owners. So, let's take a quick tour!

Porto Luminoso
In the old days Tartosa was even smaller, and all land was owned by the Mazaloom Royal Trust. The villagers made a living from fishing, and typically sold most of their harvest at the old town market in Tredony. Tartosians shortly discovered the beautiful art of nectar making, and for more than a century Tartosa has been widely known for its good nectars. They say grapes build a unique flavor in this area, and nobody can explain why. So why not just enjoy the lovely result - the nectar?

Mid picture (1) is Castello Tredony, Tartosa's oldest building.

The oldest build of them all is Castello Tredony (1), home of the Count de Tredony.

Tartosa Promenade - a Multi Content Lot

(Year 229) The popular Tartosa Popular is owned by the Tredony Trust, now owned by House de Luminosa. The beach lot has been offering tourists as well as locals many services over the years, mainly focused at eating and drinking, but also shopping of souvenirs, art and clothes.

I built the beach building recently. It's not yet quite completed, I think I'll play with alternaive wall textures, and also a few features like beach showers are missing. But because I took some pictures - and am away from my game for a few more days, I'll just share as things are currently. Perhaps you will fiind some inspiration for your own beach lot.


Tartosa Promenade (aka Baia dell'Amore) is quite spacious, but without coming across as too massive. The lot is categorized as Restaurant, but I guess that can alter over time. It means the beach supplies like sun beds, will probably not be used by anyone but the active household. I prefer the 2nd floor shop/dining areas to be busy.

Chateau Cavalier: It's a great Day for a Wedding!

(Year 229) The couple has been waiting for years - and finally they were allowed to elope! Duke Charlopold got his Lady Luna, and Lady Luna got her Duke Charlopold. Although the event was downscaled a bit due to the groom's father deceasing this Spring, the event that took place in the chateau gardens was not that bad. It looked like the bride and the groom's mother, Old-Duchess Claudine, were both satisfied.


Their full civil names are Charlopold Demitris de Cavalier and Luna V. Heimlich. They met at University some years ago, but their relation was not approved by the Old-Duke until last year, when Luna got her Lady style. It was discovered that she is the daughter of Duke Merlin von Windenburg, and not the criminal Jacques Villareal, like everyone thought.

This was my very first wedding more or less with the use of the My Wedding Stories GP features. Some fun, and some frustration...

My Wedding Stories Game Pack - Tartosa World, Trailer and Live stream

So, the new game pack is finally being announced! A trailer is online, and this Friday, tomorrow, there will be a live stream, hopefully answering all our questions.

I had decided not to get a wedding pack as i hardly ever play weddings - if I do there is no real party. But the new little Tartosa Beach World looks stunning, and there seems to be some nice decor and features that won't be strictly limited to weddings. I will need to check this out!


I took some screenies to study the world more, and here's sharing, just in case you like to stare at pictures forever to spot new details, like I do :)
