Have I ever spoken of my world to you? Not enough, I'm sure. In many ways, the Disc is similar to the Roundworld. The people aren't any different, somewhat unfortunately. But... everything is so much... more.
There's only ever been one gonne created in the Disc - Leonard of Quirm decided it would be a splendid project to work on, of course, being who he was. Upon completion, the ruler of our city immediately ordered it to be destroyed. No one listened, of course, and a lot of mess had to be cleaned up as a result. More than a simple weapon, a gonne is... power. Complete power, such that Death himself doesn't dare to touch. In the hands of a human being, greater atrocities have been committed than due to any other impetus in the history of the Disc.
I know what you're thinking. I don't have any fear of the gonne. But I can't conscientiously use one. It wouldn't be... right.
