Description

Seleccionado al mejor cómic infantil del Festival de Angoulême 2022 Premio de los libreros de Québec Tras una batalla que casi acaba con ello, Bea y Cad despiertan en la aldea oculta de los arsai, unas criaturas misteriosas capaces de vislumbrar el futuro. La visión de los arsai muestra un panorama desolador para su planeta: el pájaro Kest Ke Belenus, que ha despertado de un sueño inquieto, amenaza con arrasar Irpa. Desesperados, nuestros dos héroes van en busca de un espíritu del agua llamado Lorgon, cuya sabiduría ancestral podría ayudarlos a encontrar una forma de vencer a Kest y salvar Irpa de la destrucción total. Pero cuando su encuentro con Lorgon los deja con más preguntas que respuestas, Bea y Cad deben decidir qué es más importante detener a Kest o averiguar la verdad.
