Crap.
That's exactly what I was afraid of, that this might feel to unrealistic for the reader

The idea was that firearms make men militarily relevant for the first time, and if they can suddenly become effectively soldiers, it changes who can fight, who is needed, and eventually who holds influence...

Whether society embraces or resists that change is one of the central conflicts of the story...

If you ask who would even oppose to that, the list would be longer than one might think:

- institutions built around training magical women
-noble families whose daughters dominate the officer corps
-economic systems built around magic...

And on top of that: cultural beliefs that define military service as feminine

You might ask then: "Why would anyone even think about men becoming soldiers? Why wouldn't they simply arm the women?"

1st: Bcs there aren't enough women.
2nd: Bcs guns allow non-magical people (men or older women) to contribute as well...

Also is it much more logical

Damn... I didn’t expect Rattonius to end up like Oberyn Martell He made me chuckle when he went straight for the balls lmao

I guess this is the point where the others should reconsider whether having Silje join them on their patrols would be the better choice. I mean, that's the second spectre she's killed now...

I love how this turned from fantasy to time travel to dieselpunk/flintlock-fantasy and now Old Gods joined the game as well

I see, so you turned this into a modern household setting, great idea!

I love the mock-epic tone and the overall readability. There wasn't a single moment where I had to stop or reread a sentence.

It's highly entertaining, good job 👏
