Once again the producers have been kind enough to provide some historical notes on the show’s homepage (Google translated).

Melusine and Count Poitou: Usually taking the form of a woman with a serpent or fish tail for legs, Melusine is the spirit of fresh water. In the tellings of Melusine involving Count Poitou, she is able to take human form for all but one day per week. She keeps this a secret from her husband, Count Poitou. However, during an argument he calls her a serpent, and believing that her true form was discovered, she leaves him forever.

The witch of the hearth: A hearth is a brick or stone fireplace used for both cooking and heating in medieval times. A witch of the hearth is a witch that uses cooking as an integral part of her witchcraft and is generally associated with white magic and benevolent assistance rather than malevolence. In Maria’s case, it would seem she uses her hearth to brew medicines, primarily for Anne’s grandmother, and she also uses a portable cooking pot for summoning medieval beasts on the battlefield.

Ordination: To be perfectly honest, I know absolutely nothing about religion other than the fact that it exists for no explicable reason whatsoever. So with that in mind, just read the link.
