I believe that Love mentioned that guns are powered by ether batteries? White ether, but that's what they'd be using instead of gunpowder. As for the usage of the word 'fire'... maybe it began as an intimidation tactic? Fire is a forgotten myth to these people, but they've been fighting one another for centuries. If the first people to make guns said that it gave them power over fire or something, wouldn't it kinda scare the bejeezus out of their enemies? And it's just stuck around since?
