Allegedly, when William the Conqueror first landed in England he tripped in the sand.

I'd've left a land mine where he was going to fall, turning the future king of England into a fine mist and a scattering of viscera.

Probably Sound of Thunder meself out of existence, but it'd be worth for the immediate chaos it would cause.

That would probably snuff me out. I have a tenuous family link to him through a bastard somewhere along the line.

Then again he was in his late 30s by the time he invaded England, so he'd probably done most of his seed-sewing already.

That’s a sacrifice we’re just going to have to accept. I’m sure it’ll be painless.
