## Game of Towns

After the death of Sarah Haverford, Thomas, the acting Mayor of Mineral Town, puts Harris in charge of investigating the death. Harris teams up with his good friend Aja Standish who runs a small newspaper in town. Harris and Aja investigate the death, finding that Sarah was obsessed with a diary owned by her late father Billings Dempsey. After the relevant pages are ripped out by Basil Randolph and Anna Randolph, the team go to the Stills-Hawthorne Villa in Forget-Me-Not Valley to corroborate the missing days of the diary with the Villa Archives.

At the Villa, Harris and Aja discover that Manna Standish and Anna are not the natural daughters of Edward Starling and they travel back to Mineral Town to tell Thomas the news. After Duke Standish's rebellion, Thomas makes an attempt to allow Duke to return while also supporting Thomas's bid for Mayor. Harris supports his father, a political move that disgusts Aja, who leaves Mineral Town, taking a boat for the Sunshine Islands. Now Mayor, Thomas acknowledges Harris as his heir and makes him Chief of Police.

## Heir By Iron

In the War of Town and Valley, Harris joins the army of Rod McArthur, serving as an officer. The army is initially successful. Eventually, Zack DeWitt admits to him that he is in love with Rod's wife Lilia McArthur, shocking Harris. Most of Harris's time is spent in the army during an Heir By Iron.

## War for Winter

Thomas and a posse investigate what lead to the death of Lumina Hawthorne and Rock Ricardo. They discover it was Mukumukus who suddenly appear and kill Thomas. With the death of Thomas, Harris becomes Mayor and immediately instructs the townsfolk to hide in their homes while the Mukumukus rampage through the Town and Valley.

Harris befriends Rick McArthur and Jeff Allister, who believe that Saibara Bellamy is attempting a coup against Harris, coordinating with his Forget-Me-Not Valley-based son, Grant Bellamy. Concerned, after the death of Takakura, Harris opts to appoint Chris Cochran, the wife of Wally Cochran the warden of Forget-Me-Not Valley. This angers his aunt Samantha Bellamy, leading to Saibara actually planning a coup against Harris.

Later, Marlin Stanton descends the Highlands, telling Harris that his army was killed by Mukumukus, but he knows how to kill them. Harris plans an expedition to the Highlands along with Rick, Gray Bellamy, and Doug Haverford. In the Stanton Graveyard, they discover fleas who have the Sickness. Harris instructs Rick and Gray to return to the town while Doug dies of the Sickness there. Harris intentionally infects himself with the Sickness and returns to Mineral Town. He fights a Mukumukus and is killed, but not before the Sickness begins to spread among the Mukumukus.

Any hope for Saibara to make the Bellamy family Mayors of Mineral Town when his grandson, Gray Bellamy is killed by the Sickness. With a broken spirit, he commits suicide. With the Mukumukus dying off, Rick and the other villagers leave the town, but they find an army of sick and near dying Mukumukus coming for them. They attempt to flee, but the Mukumukus are suddenly kills by guns held by residents of the Sunshine Islands led by Regis Stills and Michael Vaughn. The Sunshine Islands Army is accompanied by Aja Standish who has returned to end the war. Some Mukumukus are killed by the others die from the Sickness. Everyone hides inside until the bodies of the Mukumukus can be removed, allowing Regis to take control of the Town and Valley. He installs Aja as his puppet mayor in Mineral Town and makes his daughter, Sabrina Stills, the Warden of Forget-Me-Not Valley, moving into the Stills-Hawthorne Villa, which he renames the Stills Villa.
