does the fallen magic universe have gunpowder?? if so

whats the % of this happening??

That's a great question!! I've honestly teetered back and forth on whether I want guns to be a weapon in my book. On the one hand, it's not the first weapon that comes to mind when I think "fantasy," but on the other hand, I could MAKE it into something more magical and fantastical.

Do you have any ideas on how I could better fit this type of weapon into a fantasy story? Because I absolutely would!

For now I'll say this: If I did have guns in the world, they'd be used, like, 70% of the time, and they'd be shot off of the backs of stolen horses. John would be a gunslinging maniac despite the fact that he already has magic and really doesn't need a gun. Bella would probably just end the book early by popping the Queen herself. Blake would be working overtime casting some sort of shielding spell trying to keep John and Nathan from getting hit.

It’s my birthday! Time flies 😭

Apologies for the spam but! tell us a bit more about the world building?? which countries are there?? are there dragons?? whats the technology like??

DON'T APOLOGIZE! It's been super fun to answer your questions!! Warning, this'll be a longer post!

As of now (this is still something I'm working to fully flesh out, lol), there are about six different countries/kingdoms, one of them being Elubeth (where most of the book takes place).

-Neakoth, in the north.

-Falith, in the south

-Lorigothia, in the east.

-Elubeth, in the west.

-Streac Strana, an island nation in the east.

-Raew, a small, quiet southwest nation known for its delicious fruits.

The Eerini Desert in Falith is known for its gorgeous sun-colored sand and its adorable Oasis Chameleons (teeny tiny blue chameleons that also glow in the dark!) The Eprus Desert in Lorigothia is where one of my characters, Josep, is originally from! Most of his familiy still lives there, but he lives in Elubeth with his husband, Adler (Adler is originally from Neakoth!) And yes, there are multiple languages throughout this world, but I'm not Tolkien, and I haven't actually CREATED those languages yet.

Elubeth is basically its own small continent, lol. The only way in or out of the kingdom is by sea, which wasn't a problem until Queen Hortensia put all ships on lockdown. No neighboring kingdoms were allowed near Elubeth unless given strict permission, and even then, they were not allowed to stay for long. Any ships or boats leaving Elubeth are only allowed to go so far out before the Elubithian Navy is after them. Ships must be registered, and the Navy can board and search ships/boats at any time for any reason. Ports always have Royalists and such stationed to keep an eye on things. We wouldn't want people sailing to Lorigothia and trying to escape, would we?

Elubeth is crawling with strange and fantastical creatures (which I love coming up with!) Here are a few images from my Pinterest as examples:

Birch Elk

Siren's (not my art!)

Ember Wolves

Totally Average Horses (ok fine, MAYBE its MY take on a unicorn. Not my art though)

Armayan Sea Monster (found in the Armayan sea that lies between Elubeth and Lorigothia. Terrifying, but not my art.)

There are also Fire Toads, Emerald Crested Geckos, and Feathersnakes (which are VERY cute)

In Elubeth, each town/village/city has differences in clothing, food, and way of life. Lorport is a port town full of Royalists, pirates, and poor fisherfolk just trying to scrape by. Rye, like Gilamoore, is a simpler town full of farmers. Caelfall, near the Royal City of Bowes, is a prim and proper city full of people who totally love the Queen. Definitely. They're 100% not just scared into falling in line. No way.

As for technology, I'd say its very much your typical medieval schtick, though I'm still adding onto it! There are a lot of swords, wooden ships, and things like that. But there's also crossbows and knuckledusters, and carriages that aren't pulled by horses but rather run on magic power. There's also the use of gears and simple mechanisms. I really need to sit down and work more on my tech. Any ideas? Throw 'em my way!

Finally, dragons. As of now, there are not really any dragons that we actually SEE in the book, but there are passing mentions of them, and there's even a mention of a giant, ancient dragon skeleton just off the southern shore of Lorigothia, near Little Island. Perhaps dragons will gain more of a spotlight in the book, but as of now, they're just sort of THERE lol.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. If you notice something that doesn't make sense, let me know! Fallen Magic is still a work in progress so things aren't perfect yet lmao <3
