Hmm yep I think it's possible the dragons would try to sabotage human development of guns .... so many possibilities!
Hey just out of sheer coincedence I read this today when reading about beeswax:
"Beeswax has been used for hundreds of years as a sealant or lubricant for bullets in cap and ball and firearms that use black powder. It is often mixed with other ingredients such as olive oil (sweet oil) and sometimes paraffin."
HA!! Molly helps Chade to mastermind the development of guns and makes a fortune with her contract to supply beeswax to the royal family!!!
Now I am on the lookout for any character growing olive trees and making olive oil in future books too....
