Why did my sister die like this? Why were you injured in the war? Why were so many people killed and injured in the war? Why can't we capture the city of Paris? Why was it abandoned by the King of France and fell into the hands of the British? Why should you receive a trial of heresy? The seemingly unconsidered issues accumulated bit by bit and became Joan's unconscious denial of his beliefs, and the man in black appeared. So far, the man in black is not God, not Satan, but the "humanity" deep in her heart. Humanity tells her that you are a person, an ordinary person, not a messenger, denying her "God's will", so She once gave up her previous beliefs for her own life. But the extreme loyalty to God from a young age did not allow her to shake her religion at all, so the person in black changed her identity again and began to deny her "humanity" and criticize her betrayal of God, so she resumed her faith and accepted The fate of death. Is her humanity back at this time? Calmly accepting destiny arrangements cannot be regarded as human nature. Human nature fights against destiny.
No matter how strong and deified Joan was in the war, she was still a little girl who had witnessed the death of her relatives but was helpless, questioning why she existed, shouting for revenge, full of painful self-denial.
