History

Honnō-ji is most famous for the Honnō-ji incident. Oda Nobunaga lodged there before his invasion of the west. However, on the morning of June 21, 1582, the traitorous forces of Akechi Mitsuhide surrounded the temple and set it on fire. Knowing there was no way out for him, Nobunaga committed seppuku[1] along with his attendant Mori Ranmaru. Ranmaru's brothers also perished at Honnō-ji.

Due to the tragic circumstances, the Honnō-ji was rebuilt on a different site in Kyoto, near Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae Station.

gollark: It seems like the problem is some somewhat broken optimization, where `pcall` somehow directly executes the real `getfenv`, ignorant of environments, if you have a function which only (or something like that?) calls a builtin. Or possibly not only builtins.
gollark: I have a fix, but it would be mildly bad for `pcall` performance so I don't want to implement it...
gollark: That sounds hilariously inefficient and probably wouldn't fix it.
gollark: How can I even patch this‽
gollark: But if I don't, it does that?!
