Dana Gibson and I will wait until after the funeral and then go to Andorra. If he does not go, I may go alone, but perhaps I shall go back to London at once. This has been an interesting time here, but only because it is so different from what one would expect.
Houdania! Yes, he had found Houdania. Philip Poynter had told him of the monastery months before. Philip liked to seek and find the picturesque. Thus had he come into Andorra in the Pyrenees and Wisby in the Baltic. And he Carl had found Houdania. But what of it? Ah, yes, the burning candlestick the paper the paper! And again a gust of laughter drowned the fitful crackle of the fire.
Thomas Island, Channel Islands, Aleutian Islands, Azores, Key West, Cook Islands, Monaco, Balearic Islands, Malta, Cyprus, Hebrides Islands, Northern Territories Protectorate, Seychelles, Andorra, Canary Islands and French Somaliland is virtually assured.
Of course, you know I must have built up some sort of fantasy world to base my yarns on?" Andorra nodded. "That's obvious. I've been wondering about some of your basic theory. Like to see your notes some time." Forell spread his hands. "You're quite welcome to look them over," he said. "Come on up to my rooms now." He smiled.
Consciousness itself he might accept and relish as the natural spiritual resonance of action and passion, recognising it in its proud isolation and specious autonomy, like the mountain republics of Andorra and San Marino.
Indeed, this hackneyed approach to Italy which I had dreaded and despised and accepted only after a defeat was very marvellous, and this valley of the Ticino ought to stand apart and be a commonwealth of its own like Andorra or the Gresivaudan: the noble garden of the Isere within the first gates of the Dauphine. I was fatigued, and my senses lost acuteness.
Suddenly, Andorra set the glass down and leaned forward, hands gripping his knees. "Tell me, Elwar," he begged, "this isn't a hoax, is it? Surely, no one could be so warped as to present a friend with something like this and then to laugh it off?" Forell drew a deep breath and examined his companion closely. At last, his left hand relaxed a little. "It's no hoax," he admitted.
Feudal government may have had some bad features, but certainly the republics and democracies of to-day, to say nothing of absolute monarchies, have some, too. The ways of access between France and Andorra are numerous enough; but of the eight only two and those not all the way are really practicable for wheeled traffic. The others are mere trails, or mule-paths.
"Somehow, I can't help but look at some of the old legends and some of the things that have happened in more recent years, too. Can't help but wonder if we actually are babes of the cosmos, and if we haven't been visited and watched by some form of extra-planetary life at one time or another." Forell looked closely at his friend. Andorra, he knew, was a clear thinker in his own right.
You'll have to prepare yourself for almost anything, always keeping in mind the peculiarities and capabilities of your own people." It looked as though the time might have come. If Andorra, a clever, influential critic, should guess at the real background and the sources of the Forell tales, and if he should misunderstand the motives behind those tales, he would probably publish his thoughts.
