Sang Royal et l'Héritage du Mal c'était mes 2 tomes préférés quand je lisais la saga au collège et c'est clairement toujours le cas pour Sang Royal !

(en même temps, le focus est sur Jadina et vous commencez à comprendre à quel point je l'aime eheh - en plus elle est incroyablement badass ici !)

Tome qui m'a traumatisé quand j'étais petite mais en même temps, l'histoire devient super noire je comprends pas comment on a pu nous faire croire que c'était pour les enfant help.

The Legendaries celebrate their victory over Anathos, but the festivities are interrupted by the arrival of soldiers. They are there under orders to bring the Legendaries to the bedside of the sovereign of the Kingdom of Orchidia, Jadina’s mother, who is dying. Jadina readies herself for her first official return to the city: she has not been back since her parents banished her for becoming a Legendary.

There is more than one surprise in these pages, and both of them concern Jadina. But these surprises – these secrets – are completely different. Jadina’s mother is dying of an incurable disease, and as the crown passes from mother to daughter, according to the lineage of the magician queens, her mother confides in her a secret about their family. Then, rejecting her heritage, Jadina decides to find a cure in the underground caverns of the mythic tree Gaméra – the very same place where Jadina found her new powers. But in descending to the bottom of the earth, with the dangers and mysteries it entails, the Legendaries discover another secret. A secret which is much worse than any other discovery they have made before.

What’s more, this comic book makes a nod to environmental issues with the Gaméra tree. And again, Mr. Sobral has planted the seeds of suspicion which will guide the reader towards the revelation of a big secret in this book.

Il y a plus qu’une grande surprise dans ces pages, et tout les deux concernent Jadina. Mais ces surprises – ces secrets – sont complètement différent(e)s. La mère de Jadina est mourante d’une maladie sans remède, et comme la couronne passe d’une mère à une fille, par la ligne des reines magiciennes, sa mère lui confie un secret concernant sa famille. Puis, rejetant son héritage, Jadina décide de chercher un remède dans les souterrains du mythique arbre Gaméra – le lieu même où Jadina a trouvé ses nouveaux pouvoirs. Mais en descendant au fonds de la terre, avec des dangers et des mystères qui les suivent, les Légendaires trouvent un autre secret. Un secret qui est bien plus terrible que n’importe quel découvert qu’ils ont fait avant.

En plus, cette BD fait un signe de tête aux problèmes environnementaux avec l’arbre Gaméra. Et encore, M. Sobral a planté les germes de la suspicion qui nous guidera à la révélation d’un grand secret dans ce tome.

*Note: This review covers both numbers 13 and 14, since the story progresses 2 books at a time for this series.

I was a little worried after the amazingness of 'Le Cycle D'Anathos' that this series wouldn't be able to live up to the standard it had set for itself, but thankfully I was quite wrong. With the exception of one page in number 13, which required a deciphering key to read, which was supposed to be on a website that no longer has it, I rather enjoyed the entire saga. Gone are the days where Sobral would leave side stories unfulfilled, and instead he's created an intricate web of conspiracies that not only keep the reader riveted, but also enrich the overall narrative of the series-wide story. My only gripe with these two numbers (aside from the aforementioned annoying page) is, since they focused more on Jadina and her home, that there were no flashback sequences to explain/relive what had happened to her before all of these adventures began (like what had been done for Razzia during the battle against his evil clone/Anathos).
Aside from all that though, the series touched on a new theme here with the introduction of industrialization and the abuse of nature, which in this case had been happening for hundreds of years. It's just the latest small, but notable, nod that Alysia was not exactly a Utopia before the Jovenia accident, and that while the heroes are on a quest to correct that particular mistake, it certainly won't be all that's required to right all that is wrong in this world.
Kudos to Sobral, and highly recommended.
