I'm using swords as status symbols for the most part, as the main character for my short story even though Hes a knight He lacks a sword because He lost all his family's land etc. He instead uses a war mattock which is a cross between a mattock and an axe, it also makes more sense for my world...
Well my world building is an alternative earth history involving stuff I don't wanna bother talking about but there's no ancient civilisation and the old humans pre creation wouldn't have seen this stuff as its new to the world since humans appeared and stuff. I should have specified that sorry...
The metal was originally discovered one glacial winter in which the icebergs ended up stuck in the (not sure what its called) basically where the huge main river meets the sea and it becomes a coast on either side several miles accross allowing the lower areas to be examined and in the spring...
Well icebergs are numerous and very large so if the meteor hits the underwater part too its fairly plausible I still would rather use a different way though remember it just has to be roughly plausible to someone from around 15th century Europe minus any religious connotation.

Yeah I'd thought about that but its almost always how the "special" metal gets to earth like the star metal in dragon or warhammer. It does make the most sense so maybe it could still work as a last resort.

Thanks for any ideas :).

What about steam fired harpoons etc? Steam creating enough pressure can launch some weird objects :L. Or maybe even big air cannons like those toys which create a blast of air but on a large scale and maybe heated to scorching temperatures? I'm not sure you say your world's not got gunpowder but...
As soon as you said Oblivion I thought elder scrolls :L Oblivion being their version of hell too with deamons trying cross over and what not. I'm not sure how many others might see it the same way though, but I just thought I'd let you know :).

Also to a degree kings can influence it by creating publications etc saying something true and eventually it would be but I don't think I'll have them be aware of it.

Well the MC will have a far greater ability due to the "hunters" in my story of which he is one being partially thought up himself. He's a human transfused with monster blood and essence in short the actual things more complex than that but it makes him partially thought up meaning he has more...
