Summary
“On the seventh day of the ninth month, when the three celestial bodies are aligned, the rightful rulers of the two Kingdoms will travel by night to the Island at the center of the Worlds.
When dawn breaks on the eighth day, they will take the sacred Ring and Star.
They will raise them above the black stele, remembering the command I entrusted to them. But if the Great Ritual cannot take place even once, then the Worlds will be destroyed in a cyclone of fire. And none will remain.”
To maintain peace and harmony between the realms of the Underworld and the Upperworld, Ishâ, the Messenger of the Eternals, once entrusted a sacred Star and Ring to the two kings. Every twenty-one years, the Star and the Ring—symbols of Light and Love, the two forces that govern the universe and have become the emblems of both peoples—must be reunited on the Island at the center of the Worlds. Twenty years ago, tragedy struck after the sacred ritual: the Star and Princess Lariana mysteriously vanished. The search proved fruitless. If they are not found within a year, Ishâ's prophecy foretells the destruction of the Worlds. Lowen, son of Heloas, king of the Ring realm, secretly sets out to find them in the Star realm. The adventure begins for the young prince…an adventure full of surprises and countless twists and turns, which will gradually take the form of an initiatory journey and a love story that will shake the order of the Worlds.
What the press says about it
"The Prophecy of Two Worlds… a saga inspired by great universal myths, a mystical quest written by the imaginative screenwriter of 'The Angel's Promise' and delicately laid out by Alexis Chabert…" La Libre Belgique
"Hunted by the henchmen of a formidable Amazon, Prince Lowen and the beautiful Solâna were forced to separate. In this third volume, they are reunited to face new trials: freeing Princess Lariana and recovering the Sacred Star before the world descends back into chaos. Illustrated by Alexis Chabert, whose style lends a certain charm to the artwork, this album is interesting for its script by Frédéric Lenoir… The story is captivating and confirms the birth of a great series."
