Background[]
- The Pocket Books Timeline set all stories from this anthology on the in-universe publication date, which was between VOY episode: "The Voyager Conspiracy" and DS9 novel: A Stitch in Time after Bajoran Ha'mara in 2376. However, footnotes pointed out that individual stories referenced events both prior to and after the Dominion War.
- Stated to be seven years after "Lessons", which matches the events of "The Emperor's New Cloak". Then says it is ten months before that.
