Now let me tell you about how this "wizard" interacting with these hobbits is a direct violation of the prime directive. We're talking the introduction of gunpowder to a wholly agrarian society.

[-] PuddleOfKittens@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 weeks ago

Gunpowder in wholly agrarian societies is normal. In fact, the majority of gunpowder's existence has been in agrarian societies! Gunpowder has been in Europe since the ~1400s, but the industrial revolution didn't start until the ~1800s! (You could maybe drop that date back to the 1700s due to waterwheel factories, but then I could drop gunpowder back to the 1100s in China)

When the conquistadors invaded Aztecs/Incas in the 1500s, they were shooting guns handmade by blacksmiths with wrought iron from charcoal-powered forges.

I used to be like this. If I started drinking, my filter would start to let the 90% of alternatives I usually rejected before saying anything pass through.
