"The main issue is the nature of the planet. It disrupts most advanced technology." Ivy explained after a moment, sitting back and sipping at a drink. "Technology can be made to resist such...but that's the grade that military technology or heavy industrial equipment uses. It's more expensive, so it will never be<em>easy</em>to use such technology there. But it can be done...and the resources of the planet will likely draw prospectors, as will the outer planets. Most likely, the planet will have an orbital station built for people to go down, and for your people to venture off of your home. But the slaving? The government regulates things like that heavily, and the first request of the elves being preyed upon, and the military will go to support them against the drow. Honestly...they could destroy the village you came from in minutes, if not less. But they'd likely not do that, and force a surrender instead. The actual state things will take...that's far more nebulous, so I couldn't say."
