What if the reason that Taako says he “invents” surfing is because the two-sun planet didn’t have any moons (and by extension, no tides)?
Also, because they never really spend a lot of time in space, Lucretia never really processes just how big and far away moons really are. Faerun is so similar to home, somebody makes a joke about people living on the moon and she thinks “oh, it’s just like a floating city, okay.”
She asks Maureen to build her “one of those” and points at it and Maureen is just like “yeah, okay” and only three years later does Lucretia realize, “oh, this is fucking crazy”
She just assumed the technology to get to and from moons already existed here which is why they ended up with magic cannons, of all things
imagine lucrecia spending 4 whole journal pages talking about how cool it is that a celestial body orbits the realm and misspelling it “mune” because she doesnt know how to spell it
