Stormy, Pekel, and Me: from Doomday to Bloomday
How I recall the day, 6 months ago, when I challenged Dr Panacek to a possibly deadly duel, if he had turned out to be the man I was looking for...
His fencing was unexperienced, then, but he proved to be so courageous! and fortunately I did not have to kill him!
He was cheered by a crowd of friends and residents, and among them a so-called Miss Stormy Lorakeet ( they had not yet met each other, I've been told).
He began the fight as a simple and unemployed country doctor, sleeping in haystacks, and after the duel he entered gloriously the tavern with a roaring crowd of friends and admirers greeting him as the heroic, modest and humorous Man he indeed was.
Stormy looked already at him with stars in her eyes.
Oh, I haven't done anything good in my life, except that day, maybe: unconsciously, unwillingly, I may have been the spark that ignited first what was to become the flame of love in their heart.
It would be unfair to take all the credit though:I did not play a big part, they would have met and fallen in love anyhow, for they were so obviously meant for each other.
But it warms my solitary heart to believe I have done this one good deed at least: creating the opportunity for two lovers to meet.
Out of the bad, sometimes, the best may come out: in this case, it did!
Mrs Panacek, Doctor, let me wish you a long and happy married life in the Duchy of Coeur: I've traveled a lot, and believe me, there's no other place like it,thanks to people like you and all your friends.
Le Chevalier Mystere
Chevalier! I'm so pleased to hear from you again!I have often wondered what you were up to and couldn't help but sometimes fearing that something dreadful had befallen you. I am now reassured.It does seem so long ago that you duelled with Dr Pekel. As you say, the chain of events set in motion that day was most marvelous indeed. What a happy occassion it was for all of us to be dancing at Stormy & Pekel's wedding!Wonderful things can indeed happen!Tatiana, Duchesse de Provence
Dear chevalier. I will always be in your debt. Not only for sparing my life, but also for creating that mysterious atmosphere that allowed me to meet the most wonderful woman in the world.I do hope that you are well my mysterious friend, and that you will find happiness too in this sometimes rough world.I wish you all the best (and remember, our house will always be a safe shelter if you need one).Dr. P. Panacek, Chirurgien de Coeur.
