Joan of Arc. Leader, hero, warrior, martyr.
Follow Joan's awe-inspiring transformation from an unlikely warrior to a revered military commander, defying societal norms and facing insurmountable odds. With unwavering faith and unyielding determination, she rallies the French troops, inspiring them with her fervor and strategic brilliance.
As Joan's legend grows, so too does the complexity of her world. Navigate the treacherous political landscape of medieval Europe, where allegiances shift, betrayals abound, and the consequences of her actions have far-reaching implications. Encounter both allies and adversaries who are captivated or threatened by Joan's extraordinary spirit, including kings, commanders, and religious leaders, each with their own agendas and motivations.
Yet, amidst the chaos and strife, Joan's unwavering spirit and unshakable belief in her divine mission shine brightly. Experience the battles she leads, the trials she endures, and the sacrifices she makes, all in the name of liberating her beloved country and securing a place in history as a symbol of courage and resilience.
