Wizards


Seem to have been about in the Middle Ages, when there is little written history. If you time travel, you can’t alter anything! But if it is not recorded, who is to say what happened! You are free to change it.
Wizards talked remotely. With the mobile telephone, we all do this now! We receive and send calls from little handsets! Dressing one up in a crystal ball would be easy.
Come to think of it, crystal balls seem to have been computer terminals! With no input devices. Great way to get information around! You would need dedicated, focused IT. Which you also need for the phone system in prehistory.
Then you have people vanishing. If you had their picture on an LCD display terminal, and you would turn it off – that would work.
Either the time of magicians was a time of modern time travelers, or we just live in a time of real music.
No jokes: Serious. Hello ‘Wizard Smith’!
