In the haunting forest of Averoigne, Anselme, a young romantic turned recluse, encounters Séphora, an enchanting woman shrouded in mystery. As he is drawn into her timeless realm of Sylaire, he grapples with the warnings of Malachie du Marais, Séphora’s former lover, who reveals her dark nature as a lamia. Armed with a magical sword and a vial for Malachie's lycanthropy, Anselme faces unexpected challenges when his past love, Dorothée, reappears. Amidst love, magic, and betrayal, he must confront his deepest feelings and the true cost of desire.
