Amazing story thus far! I just finished reading page 1 to 11 translated in French by @vcelier and your original work page 12 through 23. It reminds made of the good old days when I used to read some Red Ketchup.
That's a no-brainer Resteem.

I guess from your blog that you live in Quebec, La Belle Province, and from your reply that you can read French.
I am happy that my translation lead you to the original from @katharsisdrill.

Oui, j'habite à Montréal.
I also read your last chapter of The Story of My Life so Far, and I very much enjoyed it. Now, I'm considering reading the other prior parts.

Thanks, I am glad you like it, and thanks for the Red ketchup tip. I have never heard of it but it definitely does have similarities.

Don't know if you read French, but there is also an interesting collection that does esoteric themes but with a little bit more of a serious tone. It's called La Loge noire. I used to borrow them at the public library.

Actually, I am trying to improve my French these days, I want to learn Zulu and that is the next language that will be available on duolingo, but while waiting I am doing some French-lessons and I have been reading some of my bande dessinée (the French cartoons that I own) - I will see if I can get hold of La loge noire.

All I know is French, English, and a little tiny bit of Spanish. You seem like someone speaking many different languages. How many do you speak? Would you be someone who we could consider as a polyglot?

If I learn some Zulu I will call myself a Polyglot, but until then I think I only get points for enthusiasm. I read a little Latin and ancient Greek because I specialised in Gymnasium (Danish high school) and that has made it easier to learn the European languages, but I can still see the torment I put both French, Italian and Germans through when I wreck their languages.

I'm feeling there must be some significance in the various names or am I overthinking it?

I am sure you are right, but it is possible that the significance is related to the Dane culture.
I think that the bald CIA guy is a dick: see the image on the left that shows the back of his head.

Yes, in some of the names there are hidden messages... (of course).
Gerome Beatty-Philpot and Drake Nudd are both anagrams - Gerome's name created from a character in Tintin, namely Professor Hippolyte Bergamotte - Drake Nudd is not as hard so maybe you can find out yourself.
Harriet was a name I just invented, but her surname, Li, is one of the most popular Chinese names and mean Plum - it looks like this: 李
Gorm and Burke was simply because I needed not too long names, but Gorm are probably not an English surname. The first historical Danish king was called Gorm.

Drake Nudd == Dead Drunk?
I learned today what the Bergamote de Nancy is:

Yes, that's the anagram for poor Drake Nudd!
Bergamote is also used as the flavour of the Earl Grey tea.
