Notes:

The Thra system actually has only one sun which is also the center of the system, but Thra's only moon (Gniveld) is so much affected by the gravitational pulls of the sun, Thra itself and the gas giant that it never cooled down and is still molten hot magma that radiates like a small dark sun. Jaheen, the gas giant, radiates stongly in the non-visible spectrum, but because of a curious interaction with some rare elements of Thra's atmosphere becomes visible as an additional sun from the plantet. Additionally, due to a lensing effect it looks smallest when Thra is nearest to the gas giant's position while when they are on opposite sides of the sun, Jaheen looks even larger than Ordva.

¹⁾ The day period is based on the rotation of Thra in relation to the main sun. The actual day/night durations are highly variable and depend on the other two "suns" Gniveld and Jaheen. On average the "days" last half of the cycle time, but most of the "night" is a rather bright twilight, sometimes as bright as the days.

²⁾ Based on Thra's movement around the main sun

³⁾ using a combination of Crystech and Softech the Skek have devised a method to sap willpower and latent force from sentient beings, leaving them in a virtual state of "zombification". They keep on living but have no drives and desires to speak of.

Description:

Zombies: ... After a few years in this state these poor beings even loose their desire to eat and simply sit down to die. While still active they are completely submissive although also not very bright and can only perform simple tasks for their masters.
