15th-century alchemist Montmorency flees after Agincourt defeat, meeting mysterious peasant girl Jehanne during Hundred Years' War.
The story is set in the 15th century, during the Hundred Years' War between France and England over the succession to the French throne. Montmorency, the son of a noble, immerses himself in the studies of magic and alchemy at a royal knight training school.
