Ep 6 - Ugly duckling (2/2)
Jan 21, 2026
"Did you know red stars are colder (3000°C) than blue stars (9000°C)? That's because the higher the temperature, the shorter the wave length. And red's wave length is much longer than the blue's. Among red stars, you can find Betelgeuse, which is part of Orion's constellation. It's a variable star, by the way, it frequently loses its shine. It might become a supernova in a few years, can you imagine? Well, that also means it won't be here anymore, so that's a little sad, but supernovae look so cool and pretty! And after its explosion, Betelgeuse will release different elements into space. Tons and tons of them."

Yes, I'd have loved to hear it, and I'd have added more about it. I used to learn more about stars then, but now I've forgotten so many things!

Dan wakes up as a ghost in a strange forest, and doesn't remember anything. They soon meet Lazare, who explains that they're in a place called the Whisperground, and that they can come back to the Living realm. They just have to allow them to help them recover their memory.
However, both of them seems to be hiding things from the other, and time's running out...
(CW : this comic tackles heavy topics such as mental health issues and suicide. More information in the "Before you read" note.)

(Finally !) translated from French to English for my dear friend who always believed in me and this project. Happy birthday :)
