    Mon récit se déroule à Huelgoat, son lac, sa forêt et ses alentours. On est dans le Finistère, en pays breton. Ce lieu se situe dans le parc naturel d'Armorique. La forêt domaniale d'Huelgoat occupe une superficie de 1147 hectares. On est en plein c¿ur de l'Argoat, la Bretagne intérieure, par opposition à l'Armor, la Bretagne du littoral.Merlin l'enchanteurLe seul personnage de la légende arthurienne qui apparait dans mon récit est Merlin l'enchanteur. Une personne mystique de cet univers. Sa vie le lie à la forêt et aux lieux où l'homme ne s'aventure pas. Il est en fusion avec rythmes de la nature. Par moment, il redevient sauvage et emprunte les traits des hommes primitifs. Magicien, il se joue du cycle des âges. La légende nous apprend qu'au moment où il ouvrit les yeux pour la première fois, il fut capable de raisonner comme un homme âgé rempli de connaissances, il a révélé les secrets de la vie et le futur à ceux qui l'entouraient. Merlin peut prendre diverses formes, on le voit souvent métamorphosé en cerf, mais il apparait aussi sous les formes d'un paysan, d'un moine, d'un enfant. Peu importe sa forme, il est là pour aider les hommes.Le récitLes personnages de mon récit se nomment Elouan, Gwendal. Harvey, Jovan et Paol. Elouan est le principal personnage de cette bande de copains, ils fument des gitanes sans filtre et boivent des bières en jouant à la belote de comptoir. Elouan a une copine qui se nomme Maëlys, elle serait la fille d'un roi d'Écosse, il a régné, voilà bien longtemps, elle aurait connu le roi Arthur. Du moins, il le déduit d'une statue qu'il a découverte en forêt. Un drôle de vent le suit partout, peut-être est-ce un korrigan. Mais ont-ils existé ? Des légendes et des mythes vous attendent, la légende arthurienne, si l'on pense au Roi Arthur, on pense au Saint Graal, objet mystique, Perceval, Lancelot, Morgane, la dame du lac et Guenièvre. Les chevaliers de la Table ronde, c'est aussi une chanson :"Chevaliers de la Table rondeGoutons voir si le vin est bonChevaliers de la Table rondeGoutons voir si le vin est bon"La fée Viviane ou la dame du lac fait partie des légendes arthuriennes, elle donne l'Excalibur au roi Arthur, et elle le guide vers Avalon après la défaite de Camlaan. Les Korrigans et les fées accompagneront sans doute Elouan. La légende celtique vit en terre de Bretagne. Maelys a-t-elle connu Guenièvre ?Ce roman est aussi un polar.C'est une enquête policière essaye de démêler les fils d'une intrigue où le merveilleux trouble les esprits cartésiens. Un policier d'origine italienne qui ne comprend pas l'univers de la Bretagne en perd son latin. Sans le fantastique, ce monde n'a aucun sens. Par moments, ce fin limier perd pied, sa hiérarchie s'inquiète. Le procureur s'émeut en lisant les procès-verbaux. Ils mentionnent la présence de Merlin l'enchanteur en train de préparer une soupe aux cèpes, c'est la préférée du roi Arthur. La Bretagne est la région où le merveilleux peut se rencontrer à chaque instant. Dans la forêt de Brocéliande, tu peux te recueillir sur la tombe de Merlin l'enchanteur.Tout le monde assure que la fontaine de Barenton possède une eau qui guérit tous les maux. Le val sans retour est le domaine de fée Morgane, la s¿ur du roi Arthur. Dans ces conditions, on ne doit pas s'étonner que le merveilleux corrompe la raison.
