My party doesn't use lemmy so I can drop some setting spoilers

They don't know that the adorable orphan they adopted in their time travel adventure is actually the evil lich queen in the modern day, and I'm looking forward to dropping that bomb on them

That can't possibly get away from you in the meantime, nope.

You think you're going to drop a bomb on them but you just introduced time travel to your plot. That bomb says acme my friend.

Username oddly checks out

I kept the hazards in mind, "Time travelling adventure" is short for "Yanked into the past due to an apocalyptic event that cannot be replicated" and the time travel is a problem to be solved, not a solution

And is the only way to stop the evil lich queen, to kill the kid with kindness and raise it to be a loving and responsible adult?

Because if so, your world is fucked. No DnD party is able to properly raise anything but hell and chaos.

They're teaching a kid through example the benefits of powerful people affecting change faster than all that nonsense about "consent of the governed"

That's effecting change

Effecting in this case means making

If you affect something you change it, you can affect the trajectory of a ball

It's the odd one in the affect/effect series
