History

Joan of Arc (top right)

Joan of Arc appeared in a story from the book Classics for Children. Joan of Arc gets told by God to lead the French to victory. So she leads the French against the English in the Hundred Years' War. After a successful attack she was honored by the King before she continued the war. Short after, during a battle, the English capture Joan and put her on trial. She is accused of witchcraft, and sentenced to death. When Joan claims that she was following God's will, an English/Scottish soldier reveals that he too was chosen by God, but to lead the English armies against the French. God's voice then excuses Himself by revealing that the two were never supposed to meet he decided to disappeared. Joan of Arc then is being burnt at the stake before Sir Lancelot rescues her, and they escape and live in a spaceship.[1]
