Lucie n'est pas une sorcière talentueuse. Ses deux filles, elles, se révèlent extrêmement douées, au-delà des prétentions et des espoirs de Lucie qui n'aspirait qu'à en faire des sorcières efficaces. Quant à la mère de Lucie, son génie est absolu. Mais qui sont les corneilles ? Est-on plus libre, de prendre la place des oiseaux, leur forme et leur aspect, et d'imiter leur cri ?
