Visions

Come closer, child. Don't be afraid. This isn't safe, I know, but I'll protect you. I promise.

What a life you've got ahead of you, you saucy little rascal! You're going to defy Rassilon and run away, and you're going to turn the worlds upside down. Good for you.

You'll even rewrite history, and you'll inspire such loyalty. Our Children of Time, sweetheart. You'll make heroes of them. Don't blame yourself—you bring out the best and worst in people. See, it's started already, child.

"There are monsters out there."

Yes, I know.

"They're calling. They know my name."

No, they don't. They don't have to know. They don't have to have any power over you. You're a prince, child. All of time and space is your inheritance.

"I want to see it."

Maybe you will. Someday.

"I have to go. I have to see it. It's pulling on me. It needs me."

It will.

"I need to go."

Not yet.

"Who are you?"

I love all my children.

Go, child. Go forth.

And, because I am merciful: Forget.
