Joan of Arc
Before the War
http://specials.msn.com/a-list/news/medieval-knights-ptsd-psp
Hello, I'm Joan of Arc. I live in a small village in France called, Domremy. France was at war with England. My village was just out side of where they fighting. My people were very holy. We were also catholics. One day when I was thirteen I was working in my garden when I was visted by Saint Micheal. Later I was visted by Saint Margret and Saint Cathrine. Sometime later my visions told me about the great misery there was in the kingdom of France and that god had a mission for me. I was to leave my village and travel through enemy territory to the dauphin. Then take him on a journey to the Cathedrol at Reims to crown him king of France. I was told to go to the gvernor and ask for an escort to protect me in my journey. He refused the first time. So I went home. When I got there I found out that Orleans was surronded by solders. My visions gave me a new mission: I was to save Orleans. Finally the governor said yes after alot of pestering. But Only becouse of the prophecy. It read: France would be lost by a women and be save by a virgin.

Life at War

On a cold evening in Febuary I began my Journey. I rode out with an escort of six men. We traveled by night to escape from enemy soldiers. I also went by la Pucelle or the maid or the virgin. When I arrived people already knew who I was. They called me the Maiden. At noon I was escorted up the coblestone streets, across the drawbridge and into the Castle grounds. I entered the grand chamber 300 people filled the hall. I had boasted that I would known Prince Charles instantly. I walked straight up to Charles and said " God give you life gentle king." He answered " I am not King Joan. There is the King" he pointed to the man next to him. But I was not fooled. I said "By god gentle prince it is you and none othor." then I explained to him everthing that happened, my voices, my mission, him getting crowned king and so on. but before we rode off I had to do something about the problem in Orleans. I was given a suit of armor and a sword but there was a specific one she wanted. The Castle staff found it in the temple of Saint Cathrine. We travled to Orleans and I thought we would fight right away but NO the Governors brother said to wait for more soldiers. When reinforcements arrived they left me while I was sleeping. When I woke up I dressed in my armor and headed out to battle. When the soldiers saw me they cheered and fought harder. When we won and the English retreated we started to head back but then the English charged from behind. Me and another captin charged them alone with only are lances. Seeing this the French army charged behind us. The next day I was wounded in my shoulder but I survied and we took over the Tourelles. After we freed all of Orleans we started are journey to Reims. When we got there the king was crowned and my mission was done. But I still wanted to free all of france. So my army and me attacked a city to free it but we lost and I was captured and the english paid my ransome I was theirs.

Death
http://depositphotos.com/1394509/stock-photo-3D-Golden-Cross.html
I had a trile and they said I was indeed being forced to do this by the devil. I was to sign a contract to say that it was all a fake or I would be killed. I signed it out of my own panick. Then they shaved my head and made me ware a dress but they left my mens cloths in the cell. One day the grauds came down and I was waring the mens cloths again. I was sentenced to death on a stake. They made me ware a flameable dress and a tall hat that said heritic, relasped,apostate,idolatress. Then they tied me to a cross and before they burned me thay let me hold a cross. I died and they said "We are all lost. For we have burned a saint."
