So, another thought into the heirs of Edward VI....

It's said that as Edward was dying his sister Mary was summoned to his side, however this was a ruse by John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland, to capture her and help Jane Grey become Queen. But Mary was forewarned, fled to East Anglia, and built up a successful momentum to become Queen herself.

What if she isn't warned and is captured.
Is she executed or merely imprisoned? Does she become a nun?
What happens to Elisabeth?
What would a successful Jane Grey as Queen be? By all accounts she was similar to Elisabeth in intelligence and temperament.
Will Dudley push his luck?
Will the Reformation go more strongly in England?
