1 | Start

Welcome, adventurer! You stand at the threshold of an uncharted world. Where would you like to begin your journey? Or perhaps you can tell me about this universe we'll be exploring together?

2 | The adventurous world of Leonardo da Vinci and Filipino Lippi

Ah, Renaissance Italy unfolds before you! A world of artistic brilliance, scientific discovery, and political intrigue. The year is 1490, with Leonardo's workshop in Florence and Filippino's frescoes gaining fame.

Where would you like to begin? Florence under Medici rule? Milan's ducal palace? Or somewhere else?

3 | Find something funny and inspiring

You stumble upon Leonardo's workshop where his latest flying machine test has gone comically wrong! His assistant dangles from the ceiling, tangled in ropes and canvas wings, while Leonardo excitedly takes notes, declaring it “a most informative failure!

Inspiration and laughter fill the chaotic space.

4 | Ask the master to build a rocket

A rocket?” Leonardo's eyes light up. “Like the Chinese fire arrows? Fascinating!” He quickly sketches several designs, muttering about “controlled explosion” and “vertical trajectory.

Not possible yet, but what a marvelous challenge! Perhaps we start with smaller experiments?

5 | Let’s do it

Leonardo's workshop becomes a flurry of activity! You help gather saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur for primitive rocket fuel. After days of calculations and failed tests, a small cylindrical device launches skyward, startling pigeons before exploding with a bang!

Magnificent failure!” Leonardo beams.

6 | Let’s continue

Word spreads of your “flying fire” experiment! The Medici are intrigued, but church officials whisper “demonic arts.” Leonardo, oblivious to rumors, drafts improved designs with multiple stages and stabilizing fins.

Next time, higher and controlled! We need better metals…
