Fantasy books will often take a modern creation or event and demonstrate a fictional way it came to be. Maybe it will be a gun, or you find out that a lesbian love affair caused the French Revolution. I'm currently reading a book in which a character creates something not often encountered in fantasy fiction: the rape whistle. In times of magic and war, thank the gods that women have access to rape whistles. Do you think things might have gone down differently in Greek mythology if all those women had rape whistles when Zeus was going around forcing himself on everyone?
Here's a rape whistle for kids--fun for the whole family!
