Content : In the Bitterness, a vast expanse of deadly mists, chimeras prowl.
Clervie, a servant at the Watch of More, spends her days in the service of Messer Sénoc, a distinguished alchemist. Between preparing the blue fire and taking readings of the misty frontier, every precaution is taken to protect against the Bitterness.
Just before the great tide, the men of the bastion discover the existence of a chimèron, a hybrid half-human, half-chimera. Concerns grow as the mists rise. What are the true intentions of this creature?
When Clervie discovers she has abilities similar to the chimèron’s, everything changes: a bond forms between them, and she must now choose between her heart and her duty.
What if the chimèron is not a threat, but living proof of salvation for humanity?
