A STROKE OF LUCK

Blanche’s hatred is so great it threatens to blot out even Giselle in her dragon form. Giselle, Ao, and the others are backed into a corner by that overwhelming power, unable to do anything. But then rescue arrives from an unexpected quadrant—the commune that everyone thought was sitting this battle out, Wadjet Bibliothèque!

NEGATIVE SPACE

Giselle and her comrades fight to get Ao back, but they struggle to get past Flamme’s Albert and Pain’s fierce resistance. Meanwhile, Ao wanders the depths of his memories and the past he’d forgotten is finally restored to him. Lost beneath deep, stagnant waters, the black painting Ao created so long ago is trying to blot out the world.

A BOLD STROKE

DANSE MACABRE

Thanks to a visit to Giselle’s old master, Myrtha, Ao learns about Giselle’s curse and how it’s tied to the city of Paris. Giselle and Ao make for Noah’s church, where they hope to find the first clue to breaking the curse. But when they arrive, they find a “flamme” ravenous enough to devour two of L’Ordre’s finest.

THE COLORS OF YESTERYEAR

Giselle, the ancient secret Queen of Paris, finally tells the story of her youth. What fate befell her in years long past? Do her memories hold a clue about how she can avoid death? What can Ao do for her, as her apprentice—or as her groom?

THE CANVAS IS PRIMED

Giselle and Ao care deeply for each other, but they are being steered by the hand of fate. The game in which the legendary dragon of Paris and her chosen groom are entwined is about to begin.
