Louis de Valois, duc d'Orléans was the only surviving brother of Charles VI (and rumoured lover of his sister-in-law, Isabeau of Bavaria-Ingolstadt). In 1407, Louis was murdered by Jean sans Peur, duke of Burgundy.
How he survives is open to question. It could be that he never takes the route he did OTL, it could be that he delays leaving. It could be that he kills the attacker that split his skull open, and as such, he is injured but not dead. Or any other possibility - like the assassins decided got hungry/bored/tired/cold (its Paris in December).
Either way, Orléans lives but the question is if Jean sans Peur is safe from retaliation? Will the Burgundians try again? How would this affect French government of the day?
