Résumé
After a horrific battle in a mythical Asian land, a peasant soldier with a mysterious past encounters a young woman who has come to find the body of her dead fiancé. She is determined to travel to Takedo Castle and get her hands on the Mask of a Thousand Tears, a golden mask which will allow her to travel to the underworld and bring her fiancé back to the land of the living. The peasant, Masamura, accompanies Sadakyo on her quest. She discourages him but soon learns that she has no chance of surviving without his help. They are both determined, for different reasons, to see this mission through to the end, no matter what the cost. A story in two volumes.

Born in Rennes on December 18, 1969, David Chauvel was unemployed when he discovered Alan Moore and David Lloyd's "V for Vendetta". A vocation was born: he would be a comic book scriptwriter or nothing at all! Helped by Lucien Rollin, he started writing on his own before joining the Atchoum studio (which had Fagès, Le Saëc, Bertho, Lereculey, Duval and Kerfriden in its ranks). He signed his first album, "Black Mary" (Glénat, 1993), at the age of 20 with Erwan Fagès, then he signed "Rails" (Delcourt, 1997) with Fred Simon. Numerous series followed such as "Les Enragés" (Delcourt) with Erwan Le Saëc, "Nuit noire" (Delcourt) and "Arthur" (Delcourt) with Jérôme Lereculey or "Octave" (Delcourt) with Alfred. In 2005, he became a publisher for Delcourt, launched the "7" series and published works such as "L'Homme Gribouillé" or "Come Prima", which won the Prize for Best Album at Angoulême in 2014. Since then, he has also written the series "Wollodrïn" (Delcourt) with Jérôme Lereculey, and more recently "La Route de Tibilissi" (Delcourt, 2018) with Alex Kosakowski.He also developed the WW2.2 concept series (Dargaud, 2012-2013), an alternative history around the Second World War. In 2019, volume 1 of the series "Le Masque aux mille larmes" (Dargaud; "The Mask of a Thousand Tears" Europe Comics, 2020) with Roberto Ali was released.
