Just an idea that sprung up in my head while doing something completely different, a what if scenario I would be interested to see your take on.
In the summer of 1532, Henry VIII of England is working towards making the political alliances he needs to get a new marriage going, in the hope of having a son to succeed him. One summer day, he decides to take part in a jousting tournament. Things doesn't go as he intends, and in a tragic (though elaborate) accident, he has a panicking horse stepping him in an area where you don't want people to step. He is bedridden for weeks but recovers. His ability to reproduce, as well as his ability to stand up while urinating, does not. Poor Henry VIII is effectively rendered a eunuch.
What happens next?
