You pulled the lever, murding the king and his two daughters.
You gained 3 XP! You leveled up! (1 --> 2)
Monarchy? Who needs one of those anyway; I'm sure this "Demon Lord" was just some political rival the undoubtedly tyrannical ruler wanted to subsume. Just as you had before, the world would need to rapidly adapt to your revolution. Although, what would that look like in a pre-industrial society? And should you be worried about the trolley picking up speed again?
There is a runaway trolley barreling down the street. Currently, it's poised to strike the college of mystisysm, killing of the 10 curators and destroying the largest repository of knowledge in the world, giving you no XP from the incident. You are standing next to a lever that, if pulled, would redirect the trolley towards the World Advancement Fair, murdering the 30 most capable craftsmen on the planet and destroying their lifes' works, giving you the XP for their deaths.
Do you pull the lever?

[X] whats this button that says experimental emergency brakes? Push it.
Magic OR technology? Bah! We shall have BOTH! The next runaway trolley shall be a Magitek one!
Given the state of things, it's probably more artisanal craftsmen poking at the first steam engine.
Guess the trolley's here are usually horse drawn or something.

Or it's unreliable narrator. Capable craftsmen also engage in lots of labor violations and putting honest laborers out of work by inventing automata and steam enginers to take their jobs.

Oh I hate this choice actually. The World's Fair were some of the brightest and most hopeful moments in history, imo, and the burning of the Library at Alexandria was a terrible tragedy.

I choose a third option. Also we should really look into getting conductors on these trolleys. Do they even have passengers?
