Description:
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?​

Story and art by Masayuki Ishikawa.​
