#Worldbuilding prompt 1/13/24
Does your fantasy setting include firearms? Why not? Given that the tech used to make full plate and rapiers came after we'd been using guns for a while, what happened to keep folks from using gunpowder in your world? If you want to be more in line with history, you need to explain the lack of firearms more than their presence.

@Jackgiantkiller I wrote a fairy-tale-ish novel where wheellock rifles are a major plot point.

Still looking for a publisher, though.
