Joan of Arc (French: Jeanne d'Arc; ca. 1412 – 30 May 1431) was a national heroine of France and a Catholic saint.[1]

Biography

She was a peasant girl born in France in the year 1412.[1] At some point she came into possession of the Sword of Eden.[2]

Joan claimed that she had visions from God, telling her that she must free the land of English domination.[1] She used the sword to lead the French to numerous victories in the Hundred Years' War.[2]

Joan was finally burned at the stake as a witch on May 31 1431, at the age of 19. Her death was orchestrated by the Templars so they could steal the Sword for themselves.[2]
