Dear Reader,
You’re story is not the only story in the world. The world does not simply wait around for you to stumble into it. It has, in fact, been going on for quite a long time. Throughout history there have been many people. There have been many secrets. And there have been many stories. When one person’s story ends, it will not be long before another begins. This story, like all others, will be filled with secrets, riddles, and mysteries.
There are many secrets in the world. Unfortunately, not all can be answered. Not all need to be answered. Some questions are not yours to answer, because they are part of someone else’s story.
Violet, Klaus, and Sunny stumbled across many secrets during their journey. Not all these questions were answered, but when all is said and done, it really doesn’t matter. Big questions don’t matter, such as What was the Great Unknown?, What happened to the Quagmire triplets?, or What was in the sugar bowl?. Little questions don’t matter, such as How did Count Olaf's parents die?, Who was Kit’s husband?, or What was the name of the Baudelaire sibling’s father?. These questions are not part of the story at hand, and may be better left in the great unknown.
Throughout life, you may come across your own troubles and secrets. It is then that you may add your own chapter to A Series of Unfortunate Events. It may seem at times that the world has been nightmarished for good. But what at first may seem to be a series of unfortunate events may turn out for good in the end. It is imperative that you stop wishing to know the answer to all the questions. You will learn what you need to learn, and you will learn it when the time is right.
Many stories will continue after the first journeys of the Baudelaire siblings. The adventures of Beatrice Baudelaire/Snicket may one day be recorded, as well as the story of the Quagmire triplets, or Count Olaf. However, what you have (hopefully) read, and know as A Series of Unfortunate Events, is the story of the Baudelaire siblings, and no one else (though other stories do collide at times). You need not concern yourself with the troubles and stories of other people, as you may never know the full story. You have been given a wonderful, awful, great, terrible, sad, but above all else, happy story about the Baudelaire siblings by a lonely man named Lemony Snicket (who has a story of his own as well).
“It is not the whole story, of course, but it is enough. Under the circumstances, it is the best for which you can hope.”
THE END
----------------------------------------------------------
This was written by me, and is basically just to sum up the entire story of the Baudelaire siblings in a few paragraphs, though I am sure that can never truly be done.
It was written, though I am sure it will not, to end all questions we have. I wish people would stop speculating about the questions left unanswered. Can't you see it doesn't matter? After finishing The End, I was 100% satisfied. I didn't neccisarily care about the rest of the mysteries.
This message contains what I am sure was meant to be somewhat of the moral of the story, and how I feel after finally finishing A Series of Unfortunate Events.
