To understand this text, it is necessary to read one of my previous theories:
asoue.proboards.com/thread/35862/beatrice-letters-theory
In this text consider the following:
“letter” using lowercase letters, is a word that here means “a symbol usually written or printed representing a speech sound and constituting a unit of an alphabet”.
“LETTER” using capital letters, is a word that here means “a direct or personal written or printed message addressed to a person or organization."
And yes, I know … those letters form anagrams … And I know that everyone believes that this was the only great "secret” behind those letters. But while that makes sense in our universe, in which Daniel Handler intentionally wrote those letters to form an anagram, that makes no sense in Lemony’s universe.
The letters prominently written in TBL LETTERS, not the detachable letters, but the letters that are actually written in LETTERS, have been written over many, many years. Think of the point of view of someone in Lemony’s universe who would take this LETTERS file: this person would easily realize that the anagrams formed were just a coicidence. The letters individually do not seem to matter. However, Lemony wrote the following in the letter to the editor of TBL: (I will do the game with capital letters and lowercase in that quote):
“It was quite some time before I received the first of Beatrice Baudelaire’s LETTERS that I realized that all of Beatrice Baudelaire’s LETTERS of was not just in the first Beatrice Baudelaire but in the second Beatrice Baudelaire and that perhaps if I gathered the remaining LETTERS of the first Beatrice Baudelaire with the first LETTERS of the remaining Beatrice Baudelaire, the Beatrice LETTERS could explain the Beatrice letters and even the LETTERS of Beatrice, no matter wich LETTERS they are, and no matter what order the LETTERS are in. I immediately began work on the file. ”
In this sense: “the Beatrice LETTERS could explain the Beatrice letters and even the LETTERS of Beatrice”, at least one of the words “letters” refers to letters. Thus the letters itself has some meaning in clarifying the mystery of TBL. And after thinking a lot, I believe I discovered some of the meanings of the letters:
letter “E” LS to BB # 1: Lemony had a bad sense of direction, and BeatriceI knew it. (My hypothesis is that in the dashed lines they indicate the path while the solid line indicates walls). The path begins inside the instigation, showing that Lemony confused the East gate with the West gate. This understanding agrees with what Beatrice wrote about Lemony having a bad sense of direction in BB to LS # 5.
letter “E” in BB to LS # 1: In the universe of ASOUE there are people who can pass for others in letters. Even signatures are not reliable as a mechanism for ascertaining the true authorship of the letter. (This is important because the R ticket should not have come from R. In addition, BeatriceI can fake signatures.) In addition, to make sure who a signature is, a recognition code is needed within the text itself. I believe Beatrice uses anagrams as a code of recognition.)
letter “N” in LS to BB # 2: The drawn mountain is Mount Fraught, where there are VFD eagles. The top is full of snow. In the winter, this hill has no wildflowers. This helps us understand that Beatrice who climbed this mountain and wrote that she ate wildflowers to gain strength to return to town is not the same beatrice who was in the winter in the same mountainous region.
Letter “S” in BB to LS # 2: It was Beatrice II who wrote this letter, since she does not know what a leech lachrymose lake is.
letter i in LS to BB # 3: Beatrice used a Hatpin because of Lemony’s request in this letter. Beatrice wrote the poem My Silence Knot after reading this letter, because in the poem she refers to Hatpin. The relationship of Lemony and Beatrice was secret, because Beatrice says Hatpin is part of her disguise.
letter “K” in BB to LS # 3: This is my favorite letter … Lemony was writing to someone using this stationery. Probably he was using it to communicate with someone who was pretending to be Kit. And according to my theory, Beatrice I went on to become Kit after Kit’s death, and Lemony helped Beatrice I to go through Kit. So some letters from Lemony to Beatrice he pretended to be talking to his sister, but in fact he was speaking to Beatrice I, as in the cover letter in TSS.
letter “R” in LS to BB # 4 - Someone evil was pretending to be R. We know this because of the damp brand made with cups of stains that is staining the LETTER. This means that Lemony’s secret dating with Beatrice was discovered by some malevolent man who was pretending to be R. This may have caused several problems in Beatrice’s life.
letter “A” in BB to LS # 4: VFD training has very bad teachers, and Beatrice who wrote this LETTER knew this.
letter C in LS to Bb#5 As a sign of Beatrice’s eternal commitment to Lemony, Beatrice had given Lemony a piece of her hair with a knotted knot. It was for Lemony to realize the profound meaning of this gesture. But he did not notice.
letter T in BB to LS # 5: This Betrice actually attended a VFD school.
letter A in LS to BB # 6: LETTERS are not copies written by Lemony to be published later. Lemony found the original LETTERS, even the telegram he had sent. This indicates that BeatriceI returned the LETTERS to Lemony. These LETTERS had been sent from Lemony to BeatriceI, and BeatriceI returned the LETTERS to Lemony when finally Beatrice I met Lemony. This explains how Lemony gained access to the LETTERS that he himself had sent to Beatrice I, and so it was possible to include these LETTERS in the file that forms TBL.
“B” in BB to LS # 6: Beatrice I kindly refers to herself as B. in the usual way in VFD.
