The English Ransom

An entourage from England arrived earlier to the French court, bringing unexpected terms in relation to the English capture of Joan Of Arc. Instead of executing Joan Of Arc, the English have brought us terms in which they are willing to release Joan Of Arc back to France in return for a large sum of gold. The price for Joan Of Arc, while undoubtedly a steep one, would restore morale to our court and troops that has been lost since her capture.

5995desc = flavor_fra.2005.desc_return While it was previously believed that following the capture of Joan Of Arc by the English, she would stand and face trial in England, today the court received news that she had again returned to France. Despite being an enemy to the English cause, her captors instead agreed to a safe release. While it remains a mystery as to the reasons the English ultimately spared her, the return of Joan Of Arc has only strengthened her resolve to expel the English from France.
