Peridot: Balance of Power

Forced to flee from the media, thanks to an article by Stéphanie claiming an affair between Peridot and the Mayor, Ricia and Nathalie seek refuge among the immigrants from former French colonies. Ricia receives a summons from Sequana, the Celtic goddess that empowers her, to find a cache of Carthaginian coins. In doing so, she encounters another immigrant, Binyelum, and it is clear to her that Sequana has “arranged” this meeting. But what is its purpose?

Mars, meanwhile, continues his war against Peridot and Sequana. Having given the Carthaginians those coins, he now wants them back, and will go to any lengths at all to regain them.

The Mayor of Grenoble, also afflicted by the media, is offered a chance to help the immigrants. But with the cloud of scandal hanging over him, what can be done?

For Peridot…it’s all in a day’s work.
