@trib@aus.social I am pretty certain that Goldmoon finding the platinum disks is to mirror how Joseph Smith found golden plates. Tracy Hickman is mormon so I do not think it too far of a stretch.
I never thought about Goldmoon and "native americans", but I seem to recall mormon's thought native americans might have been one of the lost tribes of Israel?

@randomwizard@social.vivaldi.net one cannot avoid one’s preconceptions of the world, no matter how hard you try. I’m puzzling how to write some adventures leveraging Australian Indigenous stories at the moment, and I’m struggling. There are a couple of YA novels that have done some of the work, and I might adapt those. To do anything else without close consultation with elders and songline holders would be incredibly disrespectful.
