Catherine
This bachelorette becomes available after you have restored Spring season to the valley. She claims her family was the first in Hillsville to settle in the area, and has become rather wealthy because of it. She has a pompous attitude regarding others who live in the area after her father discovered the valley, and she acts as though her family are somehow the protectors of the valley. Catherine will often criticize your farming efforts, whether it is part of the storyline or when she makes requests.
As you raise your Chemistry with her, she does become less of a snob and more accepting of your farming efforts.
Birthday:
- Winter 7
Schedule:
- Wednesdays in front of your house, 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm
- Fridays in Moon Valley from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm
- Saturdays at the Harvest Goddess' Spring, 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm
- Wanders around the valley on Mondays
Catherine's Gift
Catherine's personal requests start out pretty simple, but then she'll start requesting jewels starting with request #5. It won't be available until after you have received the Hammer from Tony as part of the storyline to restore the Fall Crystal.
You can find ore when you go mining at the crystal points, then take the ores to Brutus when he is in Moon Valley on Tuesdays and Fridays. Brutus will process the ore into gems.

Love Event 2
On Wednesday between 3:00 pm and 7:00 pm after you have finished Catherine's Gift #4, walk from the valley area to the area in front of your house. You'll meet up with Iris and April for some chit-chat. The three of you are talking when Iris notices that you are being watched from a distance. You turn around to find Catherine spying on you, but she runs off once she has been discovered.
You catch up to her, and she accuses you of following her.
Choice 1: Why are you running away?
She scolds you for chasing after her like a dog would do. Speaking with such a lowly peasant as you offends her.

Choice 3: I thought you looked lonely.
She finds your statement absurd, as she explains she was merely observing how the common folk talk to each other. You should be speaking to other commoners, as she is not one of your lowly rabble. Catherine reminds you that she lives on an estate with many servants.
Her father is busy with his work, so he is not around that much. Catherine says she is there to ensure that things are properly managed. So you can see, she is much too aristocratic for you; good day to you!

Love Event 3
Walk into the Harvest Goddess' Spring on Saturday from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm and you'll find Catherine looking at the spring. She tells you it is none of your concern as to what she's doing here, but if you must know, she is thinking about her father. She is worried because he has been gone on business for a long time.
Tabitha makes a glorious appearance in search of you. She has created a new magic medicine and is looking for someone to try it out. Catherine steps in on your behalf and forbids you to drink Tabitha's potion! Maybe you should of listened to Catherine, as drinking the medicine made you pass out.
Catherine gets some help returning you to your farm house. When you finally wake up, Tabitha declares that she'll have it working next time, but Catherine objects to there even being a potential next time. It's not like Catherine was actually worried about you!
Choice 1: Thanks anyway.
Catherine scolds you for being so gullible and then runs out of your house.

Catherine calls you a buffoon and storms out of the house.
Result: +1% Chemistry
After she leaves, Tabitha lets you know that Catherine had been waiting by your side until you woke up. Catherine must have a soft spot for you; after all, you're a good-looking guy.
Love Event 4
Go to Moon Valley on Tuesday or Friday from 1:00 pm to 8:00 pm and talk to Catherine. She asks if you've had any further issues since you fainted because of Tabitha's potion. She scolds you for not appreciating how important you are to everyone, and says that you must stop agreeing to partake in every reckless request that is made of you. Besides, if you faint again it will be a nuisance to her.
Choice 1: Yes, I'm sorry.
Catherine isn't convinced, and assumes that you're going to agree to any crazy task given to you anyway. Your apology won't get you off the hook with her.
Result: +1% Chemistry
Choice 2: Yes, and thank you.
She is annoyed that you simply say "thank you" when she expect that you should be furious at her with all the nasty things she has said to you. Catherine figures that you're going to participate in whatever crazy ideas that are given to you, and says you're a soft-hearted fool.
Result: +4% Chemistry
Choice 3: Who asked your opinion?
