"What if my grandfather had three balls," Fru told me. At least that is how my friend roughly translated an Italian saying. She was implying my tendency to always worry about things, most recently an internal struggle on taking a trip with friends. Worrying to much about ‘ifs’, Fru told me, prevents us from truly living. Experience life for all it can bring us. Safe to say, that trip was truly a worthwhile experience. Whereas some people struggle with ‘ifs’, others embrace it. Particularly in the realm of historical fiction. What if the Spanish Armada landed in Elizabethan England? What if the American South won the Civil War? What if the Axis Powers won the Second World War? Pages from history have been used for books, graphic novels, video games and more. I put to you, then, yet another scenario from the annals of history. What if the Dauphin Louis, son of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, survived the ills of the Revolution and restored to his throne in 1814?
