  1. >world is like our medieval one >put magic and dragons in it >this somehow means wheelchair wheels can cross country any better I wonder if people will ever understand that a story needs to be internally consistent. In your own universe you make up, sure, you can come up with all the rules you want, but to make a convincing story you need to STICK to those rules you came up with yourself. Especially in cases where you didn’t change the rules, but you just took things straight from the real world. Like the ground, or a wheelchair, there’s no reason given as to why these two should interact differently in that world. Just saying "it’s fantasy" doesn’t influence this, it’s not barren of logic just because it’s fiction. It’s like these people are saying because there’s certain aspects changed about a world compared to our own that nothing needs to make sense anymore. Dragons exist in Lord of the Rings, yet if Frodo arrived in Mordor within a day’s walk from the Shire, that would make no sense and is completely unrelated to another. Just like how magic existing is completely unrelated to the fact that a wheelchair is obviously a major disadvantage for trying to traverse or fight anything and totally unconvincing, it’s too clunky
