The Exile

As Emilie comes to explore the Irish estate she’s inherited, she’s forced to face a startling truth: there, ghosts, fairies and gateways to other worlds aren’t mere legends, but rather the reality! Then there are the other residents, all of them strange, creepy at times, and who seem to hide a terrible secret. But there is a greater mystery still: who is the man who, from the shadows, manipulated the young woman into coming to Ireland - and for what purpose?

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.
