Kanashimi no Belladonna

Jeanne and Jean hope to begin a life together in a poor French village, but their wedding brings them under the cruelty of its feudal lord. After Jeanne suffers an assault, the people and institutions that should protect her offer blame and oppression instead.

A strange presence promises her power in exchange for a bargain. As Jeanne's abilities grow, so does her challenge to the order that has exploited her and her neighbors. The freedom she begins to claim places her in direct conflict with those determined to keep control.
