* Darkness is such an incomprehensible concept to the people of Lagosha that it must be explained to one of the characters as if it is a radical scientific concept, and the development of a torch is bizarre new technology. They have six suns in the sky and near constant daylight, so, fair enough there. Only... nightfall isn't the only condition in which darkness exists. Have these people never developed mining? They live in a society roughly equivalent to the mid-20th century United States, which suggests a certain level of industrialisation, which in turn suggests a certain level of access to minerals like coal... which are largely found by digging underground, and the further you go underground, the less light you find. So while [[TitleDrop nightfall]] would be an alien concept to these people, surely they would have ''some'' idea of the concept of an absence of light.
