September 1870: after the defeat of Sedan, the Empire has fallen, the Prussians are invading France while in Paris the Republic is proclaimed. At the college of Moussy-en-Josas, Madame Froidecoeur sees her establishment occupied by the enemy. The strange tenant of the rat-infested room is looking for the skull ring that sealed his union with death and marked the beginning of the fight against the Thieves of Empires. His anger is terrible when he learns that the jewel has been handed over to his parents to activate his departure from the college.
