Thank you to Netgalley, Europe Comics, and Stéphane Fert for an advanced copy of this book! All opinions are my own.

Temperance is an ogre who is adopted into a community of witches as a baby. Her very existence seems to cause serious contention among The Lost Ones (aka non-magical humans) and the witches. She was raised by Grizzelda, who is known for her affinity for growing plants in harmony and using them for various purposes. She feeds and helps many people including those from outside her community. Grizzelda once lived among the humans until there is a conflict that forces her to flee to the witch's home with baby Temperance and an arrow in her back. It is hinted that Grizzelda has secrets and suspicions that she is not ready to share, but that may be of use to Temperance finally understanding who she is. 

The mist is a leering threat throughout the entire graphic novel and a great source of mystery. Anyone who gets lost in it becomes a mutant with no memory of their past life. We briefly see that the characters are living in a post-apocalyptic world. So, it's possible that the mist could be a symptom or reaction to something from the past. The story ended on a cliffhanger and left many questions unanswered. Hopefully, what caused the downfall of the old world and other unanswered questions will be explained in future installments. Some several characters and relationships are also pretty vague. 

My favorite part of this book was the art. The soft, mute palette made it stunning. I really enjoyed reading this graphic novel and look forward to reading future installments.
