OVA
Description
Maria, a powerful witch dwelling in war-torn France during the Hundred Years’ War, is driven by a fierce aversion to conflict and an unwavering resolve to shield civilians from battle’s horrors. Born with innate magic, her origins remain shrouded in mystery, devoid of knowledge about her parents or lineage. Branded a witch, she faces fear and ostracization, her efforts to heal the sick and broker peace met with suspicion. When the Black Plague ravages the land, she braves violent rejection to deliver medicine until one desperate village accepts her aid, granting her refuge in a nearby forest.
To disrupt battles, she summons demonic familiars—the succubus Artemis and incubus Priapus—using illusions and seduction to manipulate soldiers. These acts draw Archangel Michael’s ire, who enforces a divine pact: her magic depends on her virginity, and public spellcasting is forbidden. Ezekiel, assigned to monitor her, struggles against her cunning exploitation of loopholes, such as blocking his sight during incantations.
Her idealistic interventions backfire, prolonging wars through disrupted mercenary payments and provoking retaliation from witches profiting from chaos. Defiance of the Church culminates in imprisonment after mercenaries and clergy coordinate an attack, where fabricated claims about her virginity collapse. Isolated, she questions whether altruism or a hunger for validation fuels her actions.
A transformative shift emerges with her love for Joseph, a human ally. Surviving assassination attempts and reconciling her fears, she accepts his proposal. Their marriage unexpectedly reignites her magic, defying Michael’s decree. Confronting the archangel, she garners support from rebellious angels and witches, compelling him to spare her and acknowledge her role in cosmic balance.
Her arc closes with marriage to Joseph, retreat to a tranquil village, and the impending birth of her child—Ezekiel, reincarnated through Michael’s judgment. Evolving from a solitary idealist to a figure embracing human bonds, her resilience, compassion, and defiance of divine and earthly authority forge her legacy as a guardian of peace.
