The French Academy was founded as a private society in 1625 by Cardinal Richelieu. It is a French academic institution dedicated to the study of French language and literature. It has 40 members. Election to the Academy is for life, hence the nickname "Immortals." When one dies, another is elected in their place; the newly elected member must deliver a speech in honor of their deceased predecessor.

A 40th seat in the Academy has become vacant, and the most worthy must be chosen from among many applicants. However, after the death of three candidates, the number of applicants has noticeably dwindled. Rumors circulate of a curse placed on the "enchanted chair." Will someone escape death, or will this seat remain forever vacant?
