Mr. Lukeson’s Losses
Most of us know what a tumultuous time it is to be in mourning, and what a toll it can take on those who have lost loved ones. As our readers will know, Mr. Ace Lukeson’s young wife recently passed away giving birth to their son — but this is not the first time Ace Lukeson has lost someone, and with some new insight to this young man’s mental state we at Witch Weekly are now fearful that this last loss will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Or mind, in this case.

At his young age, Mr. Lukeson has already endured mourning for family members - and the uncertainty of a ransomed mother returning from the alleged dead - and, with the duty of care of a whole host of younger siblings, it is no wonder that his is a fragile constitution, unsuited to stoic, respectful remembrance. Following our obituary of his wife, Witch Weekly received some interesting correspondence, supposedly from Mr. Lukeson himself — but we cannot be sure, when such correspondence can only be described as the drunken ravings of an unhinged madman.

Ace Lukeson would not be the first young man who inherited early and lost his way in the haze of a drinking problem - they do call it drowning one’s sorrows, after all - but the dependence on alcohol is again suggestive of his unbalanced mental faculties. Rumour has it that when Ace Lukeson has been spotted on the street, he has been sporting certain minor injuries, scratches and bruises and the like: ordinarily, these would be quite inconsequential, but considering his circumstances, one cannot help but think the young man has either come to blows in a recent scuffle or two, or that he is not well enough to be looking after himself.

He is not a lost cause yet, though is no doubt in danger of deteriorating further if his inability to face grief is left unchecked. There is no shame in seeking help, and he would not be the first witch or wizard to seek that help in the comforting routine and supervision of the asylum, where he will not be a danger to others or to himself. One only hopes that his relatives care enough for his wellbeing to admit him to one.

Did you know Mr. Lukeson is barely twenty-one?

What will Ace Lukeson do next?
