La historia de Juana parece ser una novela en vez de una parte de la historia. Fue una salvadora excepcional en su caballo de guerra, agitando su estandarte blanco y llamando a sus soldados a la victoria; pero también fue compasiva e intensamente humana, una joven que lloraba y sufría igual que el resto de nosotros. En el mismo sentido, es muy sencillo relacionarse con Juana como sorprenderse con su increíble personaje.
