Corneille Breille, Duke of Anse, is Henri Christophe's priest. His greatest desire is to return to France, but the king has him imprisoned in the Archbishop's Palace because he is afraid the priest will expose his sins. After his death in the prison, Corneille Breille appears to Henri Christophe in church, causing the monarch to be temporarily paralyzed.
