Céline

The Vieux Moulin is the central setting, a secluded historic house where Céline is cared for after her breakdown. The property includes a pond, and its tranquil, nature-forward atmosphere frames her slow recovery. In the story, Céline donates the estate to Geneviève as she begins her new life, and the house becomes a shared space for their work together.

🌿 Healing

Céline's recovery is portrayed as a transition from medical tranquilizers to a disciplined, holistic regimen led by Geneviève. The shift emphasizes simple routines, relaxation, and meditation as pathways back to life. Through this process, emotional wounds gradually mend and Céline regains agency over her own future.

🔮 Paranormal powers

As Céline settles into the discipline, she develops extraordinary abilities: bilocation, premonitions, and levitation that hint at a deeper spiritual reality. The phenomena escalate into near-miracles, including healings and protective visions that challenge the limits of science and faith. Geneviève watches the boundaries between ordinary life and the supernatural blur.

🗣️ Public perception

News of Céline's abilities travels through the neighborhood, turning her into a figure of local reverence and attention. The crowd's gullibility and desire for a miracle create pressure and misinterpretation, driving Céline to decide to leave. The shift examines how spiritual experiences can become public spectacle and testing ground for personal authenticity.
