This opening 20 minutes or so mainly features the most reflective and lightest moments of the score when Joris and his friends are living their lives prior to the appearance of the witch. Presumably related to a backstory for the film, this opening track reflects the action scoring that doesn’t really appear in the opening third of the score. The cue finishes with a statement of a short heroic 4-note motif, again associated with the film’s action sequences. This bridging section of “Prologue” has a fantasy/magical feel courtesy of some subtle electronics and ethereal wordless voices before leading into the briefest of hints at the darker side of the score to come. Livre 1: Julith and propels most of the action scoring. The energy of the strings and the appearance of percussion as a strong rhythmic support, particularly for the middle section of this cue, is a common feature of Dofus. A catchy motif in the strings immediately gives pace to the score with an accompaniment of low woodwinds and brass adding a sense of menace. The album opens (“Prologue”) with a summary of a couple of musical ideas that are used at various points throughout the score. It’s clear that the composer is comfortable in this world because he has fashioned an exciting and impressive orchestral score full of magic and energy. Having already composed the music for the two previous TV shows, French composer Guillaume Houzé returns to the Dofus universe for this feature. Joris and his friends must set out to save their city from the witch’s dark magic. Joris works in a magic shop and his life is forever changed when the witch Julith returns from exile and steals a powerful dragon egg. The movie tells the story of Joris, a spirited and inquisitive youngster who lives with his (humanoid cat) father and sister. Livre 1: Julith is a feature-length film, directed by Jean-Jacques Denis and Anthony Roux, and is based upon the 52-episode Dofus: Aux Trésors de Kérubim. Set in a world featured in two earlier animated TV series shown in France ( Wakfu and Dofus: Aux Trésors de Kérubim), Dofus. The film is one of several spin-off projects from a popular 2005 massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). This is the case with Guillaume Houzé’s score for the 2016 French animated film, Dofus.

Julith eventually sacrifices herself in the same way as her husband when she realizes her husband, halfway revived, would not want to be revived at the expense of another. She ignores all pleas for reason, especially from her son and starts the device killing most of the main cast in the process. Julith constructs a contraption powered by the Ebony Dofus to steal the 1000 souls from the spectators of the local arena. She finds the soul of the Ebony Dofus inside her son and almost kills Him (and succeeds in killing Kerub), before discovering Joris' identity. Souls she readily steals from the citizens that betrayed her. Julith returns after finding a way of reviving her husband but at the expense of 1000 souls. In the process Joris attains the soul of the Ebony Dofus and Kerub hides the boy away for ten long years, raising him as his own son. Jahash stopped the madness by smashing his own Dofus against the Ebony one and sacrificing himself. She fell to the ground believed to be dead. When Julith tried calming it the city guard attacked her, believing her the cause of the chaos. Someone (unknown) stole the Ebony Dofus and it is not explained why it went on a rampage. The war ended with a kiss between her greatest rival, Jahash, and from that union Joris was born. Julith led a war against Bonta in the hopes of destroying it. In addition to magic such as using her cape as a shield and weapon, she is seen wielding a long katana in a fight against Kerub Crepin and Bakara Jurgen. Events lead her to re-attaining her Dofu almost at the expense of her son, Joris, unknown to her at the time. She has the Ebony Dofus, in contrast to her future husband, Jahash, who has the White Dofus.
