Ireland, 1801. Two men are walking across the moors when they chance upon an unearthly mausoleum lost in the mists. 122 years later, Emilie Bertin, a cabaret singer going through difficult times, is contacted by a lawyer, who explains that she is the only heir to a man who vanished in mysterious circumstances, and now stands to inherit a castle and estate ... in Ireland. Thus begins for Emilie the most fantastic of journeys.
Even before starting her career as an illustrator, Florence Magnin's head was always full of fairy tales and fantastic stories. She drew book covers, card decks, roleplaying games, board games ... Her universe of ghosts, sprites and unicorns lives side by side with a sort of oneiric science-fiction. In 1990 she went into comics, creating with RodolpheL'autre Monde and Black Mary (translated by Cinebook), before venturing into solo work with Emilie's Inheritance.
