Does Scarlet Empress take place in this year?
Does The Scarlet Empress really take place in this year? I'm quite sure the current year is never mentioned in the novel. The only possible sourceI know of for the year is in Femme Fatale, which has this line: "'It's only been four months since we were all together on Hyspero...' 'Relatively speaking, it's actually about eight thousand years...'". I read this as saying that the story takes place 8000 years in the past, not 8000 years in the future.
