11 years ago, Emmie was 9, when she encountered an unbelievable animal.
Of all the creatures of myth and legend, from the scaly dragon to the cunning sphinx, the unicorn is the most beautiful and the most beloved. Although fierce and proud, he is noble and kind. While many magical creatures portend danger, the unicorn usually brings good luck. There's more about them in medieval bestiaries, and modern novels, or glimpse its image on monumental friezes, on intricately woven tapestries,
and even-if you look very closely-in the stars.

In fact, they used to distance themselves from her quite a bit, seeing as Elodie's nose was always in a book, dreaming about the fantastical worlds she wished she was born into.
