PURITY AND POWER As a war to determine the rightful ruler of medieval France ravages the land, it seems that the only hope for most, is protection from the heavens above through prayer. But deep in the forest outside of a small, bucolic village, the witch Maria will not stand idly by as men kill each other and commit horrendous acts in the name of God and glory. Using her powerful magic, she’ll summon various beasts and demons―even going as far as using a succubus to seduce soldiers into submission under the veil of night―all to stop the needless slaughter. However, Maria’s display of her magical might has drawn the ire of the Kingdom of Heaven and after the Archangel Michael puts an end to her meddling, he curses her to lose her powers if she ever gives up her virginity. Will she forgo the forbidden fruit of adulthood in order to bring an end to the merciless machine of war?Series Overview: In medieval France, the powerful witch Maria aims to stop the never-ending battles waged between England and France in the Hundred Years War using any means necessary. If it will put a stop to the needless slaughter, she’ll use all her magical abilities to summon basilisks, golems, and even succubi—despite the fact the she herself is actually a virgin. But the Kingdom of Heaven will not standby as a witch interferes with the lives of men, and the Archangel Michael punishes Maria for her folly, cursing her to lose her powers if she is ever to lose her virginity. Maria must then make a choice—she needs her powers to stop the war, but to keep her power, she must never taste the forbidden fruit of adulthood.
