le char de la gargouille

The underground village of La Plaine woke up angry this morning... Former showman at the party
fairground at the Prado beach, they took refuge in a dark cave just below the
famous place since the waters of the sea rose and engulfed all their attractions. They
prepare to return to the surface in force, armed with a relic of their ghost train: a huge
gargoyle. They plan to transport it on their magic chariot until they burn it in the annual fire.
Beyond this action of deliverance and renewal, they hope to escape from this planet
no future by invoking collective harmony because behind the flames hides the hope that a portal will open
about a new world – better and sweeter.
