After the wife of knight Jean de Carrouge accuses his squire of assaulting her virtue, King Charles VI declares that the men must fight to the death, leaving the truth to be revealed by God who will let the guilty man perish. This arrangement will leave the woman either bereaved or besmirched, her life and position in society ruined no matter the result.
