The Mirror visitor
After the Tear that put an end to the ancient world, people have concentrated on Arks suspended in the air. Each of them, inhabited by families gifted with peculiar talents, is led by a remote ancestor, called the Family Spirit. The young Ophélie is a Mirror-Visitor, a rare ability among the inhabitants of the Anima Ark: she can move from one place to another by crossing mirrors. Clumsy, solitary and reserved, she is also a particularly gifted Reader, able to feel the past of any object by just touching it.
But her quiet and idyllic life is disrupted, when she is betrothed to Thorn, a taciturn and influential member of a distant clan. Ophélie must leave all she knows behind and follow her fiancé to Citaceleste, the capital of a cold, icy Ark known as the Pole. In this floating city made of spatial distorsions and visual illusions, danger lurks around every corner and nobody can be trusted. The court, constituted of rival clans, gravitates around their common ancestor, Farouk, the allmighty and immortal Family Spirit. And they all fight against each other in a sad mix of plots, trickeries and betrayals. To make matters even worst, Thorn is the intendant of the Pole, hated as such by everyone.
But despite her fragile appearance, Ophélie is not one to be underestimated. And as she decides to find her way in this labyrinth of illusions in the presence of her inscrutable future husband, she slowly realizes that she might be a pawn in a political game that will have far-reaching ramifications, not only for her but for her entire world...
