- The planet Drahva is torus-shaped, meaning it looks like a donut. It's angle of orbit means one side is perpetually dark. Although there should be no civilisations there, the supposed "Downlanders" live there. A range of impenetrable mountains separates them from the Uplanders.
- Benny claims that Drahva has been monitored for 50 years.
- Nearly 40 years ago, the Golden Bow crashlanded on Drahva.
- The Drahvins are a proud warrior race, but there has been peace on Drahva for 300 years.
- The Uplanders haven't had contact with the Downlanders for 3000 years.
- There are no horses on Drahva.
- Male Drahvins are treated lesser than female Drahvins.
- The Drahvins are not yet advanced space-travelers. They are still using steam power, with clockwork guns and airships.
Notes
- This story presumably takes place in Benny's native time of the 26th/27th century, set before the Drahvins are advanced space travelers in their first appearance Galaxy 4.
