From the notebooks of Lucas Morrison
The city has its beautiful women and its nocturnal degenerates.
The countryside has its rustic pleasures and dangerous animals.
No place I have known has another Elviney (my pet name for Colonel LVN). And yet she combines qualities from each category. And so living with her requires me to draw on all my experiences. It is an exhilirating ordeal, one not for all men.
Oh, some may grouse "mental cruelty" and "gaslighting." I'll have none of it. They have never been married. Least of all have they been married to a rival in the service of Smith's vision.
