About Dans la forêt de Brocéliande

Broceliande is a mythical forest of the Arthurian legend, where many stories are told about Merlin, the fairies Morgane and Viviane, as well as some knights of the round table.

The enchanter Merlin, a legendary hero, is a diviner and a magician. He meets Viviane, the fairy of the lake.

Viviane is from her childhood dedicated to the forest of Broceliande. Educated in the science of plants and stars, she is fascinated by the knowledge and mystery of Merlin. He entrusts her with the secret of holding a man forever. Viviane then keeps him prisoner in an air prison delimited by 9 magic circles in the heart of the forest.

Morgane, half-sister of King Arthur, initiated to magic by Merlin, betrayed by her lover, decides to keep all unfaithful knights prisoner in this valley. Only the knight Lancelot, faithful to Queen Guinevere, will be able to break the enchantment, escape the spell and deliver the knights.
