When she arrives in Chinon and receives an audience, she immediately recognizes Charles VII, who is hiding among the members of her court. After Saint Joan and Charles VII had a private conversation about the details of God's sacred mission, Charles remained in doubt for several weeks. To this end, he orders a theologian to examine whether Joan is a virgin as she previously claimed. According to the editors of Biography.com, "the ecclesiastics declared that they found nothing abnormal in Joan, only piety, chastity and humility." Through many trials and challenges, Joan was finally able to fight for her country. She was directed to Orléans, where she was under the control of the English. During the siege of Orléans, Saint Joan demonstrated her personal holiness. “In a series of battles between May 4 and 7, 1429, French troops took control of English fortifications” (Biography.com editors). It is difficult to explain this miracle if there is not something divine to accomplish it. Although Jeanne was injured during this battle, she quickly returned valiantly to join the fight. His heroic action encouraged the French soldier. “By mid-June, the French had routed the English and, in doing so, their perceived invincibility as well” (Editors of Biography.com). However, Charles VII became more cautious after Joan's help.
