From his throne within the Void, Iluvatar, the legendary Planet Forger, began to stir, for the first time in years. He had wrote out every bit of Arda's history up until the end of the third age. Now, he was not expecting this. But when he would awake, Arda would be truly rent asunder. He could break entire continents and pull them into the Void. He truly was the power behind the throne, the ruler of the Valar. And he was awakening.
But he was not alone in the Void to stir. The giant shackled destroyer of worlds, Melkor, known as Morgoth Bauglir, saw the Doors of Night weaken due to the Dalek Invasion. Ever trying to free himself from his bonds, Morgoth would want nothing less than returning to Arda, and destroying the Valar permanently. If Iluvatar was the Power behind the Throne, he was the one who wished to destroy that throne. He was escaping.
Also within the Void were thousands of Daleks. Due to a temporal distortion, these Daleks, who had been sucked into the void after the 2006 Battle of Canary Wharf, were in the Void. And should any gate the Void open, more Daleks would surge through.
But they were of little concern to Melkor or Iluvatar. Once either of them got through, Middle Earth would be in grave danger regardless of who won. The stakes were growing every second. If the Daleks win, they have a guarantee of defeating the Time Lords in the Time War. If Iluvatar, the Valar, and the Elves win, Middle Earth will be a ruin, and the Daleks will have lost the Time War. If Melkor wins, the Daleks will lose the Time War but the Time Lords will have to deal with him before he destroys Gallifrey. And if the lone Doctor wins… then over a field of blood and corpses, the Time Lords shall win the Time War. No matter who wins, millions will die, innocent or not, and thousands of innocents already have.
