[Ace POV],
What could be used to kill a target, or even multiple targets, in an instant?
The answer is quite simple.
Explosives.
Explosive weapons can basically devastate a landscape, and this is true in my previous world, so how powerful would a magically created explosive be?
This was a fascinating question to which I had no answers but could speculate.
Although all explosives are powerful, there is still a difference in level and degree.
In my old world, there were three main types of explosions: chemical, mechanical and nuclear. Each type of explosion can be equally devastating and serious.
Chemical explosions occur due to either decomposition or combination reactions, which are both exothermic reactions
A chemical explosive may consist of either a chemically pure compound, such as nitroglycerin, or a mixture of a fuel and an oxidizer, such as black powder or grain dust and air.
