The warship Orion docked off the coast of Toulon had a topman loose his balance and fall. He barely caught on to a rope and dangled above the water. No one wanted to save him, then a convict on board asked for permission before he climbed up to save him. He saved the man, but in doing so he "fell" into the water and "drowned". This man was Jean Valjean, and he had escaped.
In "Les Miserables," an incident that took place at the Orion tavern was the confrontation between Marius and Thenardier, where Marius discovered the truth about his father's savior, Jean Valjean. This revelation reshaped Marius' perception of Valjean and led to the eventual resolution of the storyline.
