Tart Magica: Amicitiae et Harmoniae

**Tart Magica: Amicitiae et Harmoniae** (Japanese: **魔法の友情と団結 タルト☆マギカ** *Magical Friendship and Unity: Tart ☆ Magika*) is the 1st side-arc of *Magicae Amicitiae et Harmoniae*.

## Synopsis

### Act 1

*Joan of Arc is revered as a Hero of the Hundred Years’ War. But her leadership and strength of character in her time did not escape the notice of the Taisha, who sent Cube to scout her so that she can become a Puella Magi. With her friends and fellow Puella Magis fighting at her side, Joan fights the English occupiers of France — but will she soon find herself fighting something much more sinister?!*

### Act 2

*Tart presses onward in her quest to reach the Dauphin, the disinherited heir of France, and help restore him to the throne and, thus, her country to a state of peace. Her reputation as a fearless Hero and bringer of light has drawn loyal supporters who would stand and fight against England and the Duke of Burgundy. Tart's power grows, both as a beacon of hope and as a Puella Magi, but a country girl cannot hope to wield such power without facing opposition and consequences...*

### Act 3

*When Tart takes the full impact of Flèche's great arrow, her companions rally against the trio of powerful Puella Magis who are aiding the English forces. Melissa has accepted Cube's offer and becomes a Puella Magi herself, but will the addition of one novice be enough to tip the scales in La Pucelle's favor, even assuming Tart can survive her injuries?!*

### Act 4

*Just when a French victory at Patay seemed in hand, the fallen English Puella Magi surges back into action as a terrifying witch! The power of her transformation draws to her all the weapons on the field, be they French, English, or magical! Weaponless and struggling to maintain their own Puella Magi forms, Tart's forces watch in horror as the cruelty of the English girls' magic is put on full display. In this dark hour, can the light of La Pucelle win the day?!*

### Act 5

*Her king dismissive and her supporters disbanded, Tart and her remaining companions meet the forces of the English magical girls at Compiègne alone. Minou, commander of a hundred witches, is seemingly unstoppable. Such a terrible foe can only be overcome by an even greater sacrifice, but the aftermath will leave the Magis more vulnerable than ever before. When the time comes to face Isabeau, France's most powerful enemy, will La Pucelle's light shine forth once and for all?! And it turns out that something amazing will happen to Tart...*

## Trivia

* "Tart" is one of the alternate spellings of Joan of Arc's last name.
* Three of Tart's Puella Magi companions are named after famous figures from 1400's Europe: John Hawkwood, Étienne de Vignolles, and Barbora Celjská.
* The villainous Puella Magis are animal-themed. They call themselves by animal names in French and wear masks that match their animal. "Lapin" means "rabbit", "Corbeau" means "raven", and "Minou" means "kitty".
	+ It is later revealed that said girls are actually brainwashed by Isabeu, and that their respective real names are Alice, Elanor, and Hilda.
* This arc is one of the very few times Soul Gems appear, due to an insane Incubator making contracts.
* It is confirmed that the arc takes place in the Quanticverse.
* This is, so far, the only arc where Kyubey is not the main Incubator mascot.
* In the third chapter, Melody references CM2 when she flashes back to how she realized that making a wish in order to become a Magi doesn't force a soul to become a Soul Gem.
* Unlike her canon counterpart, Elisa is a pure Miko. As a result, her gun is instead given to Melody.
