Jeanne never thought much of war, as it wasn't her place. She was used to living the life of a farm hand, stitching clothing for her brothers and herself, and cooking with her mother, Esme. When Jean, her older brother, left to train to join Napoleon's army, things started to change drastically. Henri, Jeanne's other brother, lost his leg in a farming accident and the cost of the surgery was so much that they couldn't buy him a prosthetic, nor could he make himself one. Jean stopped writing and his family couldn't help but think that he was dead, and soon Henri falls ill from an infection. 

Esme doesn't want Jeanne to die on a farm, so she sends her to work for the Bertrand's, a bourgeoisie family. Jeanne only agrees so she can support her family, but she didn't expect to find much more than a job.
