Even when he'd been very young, the boy had been regarded as a prodigy.

"That one will go far," his parents were told. "As soon as he's old enough, he must be enrolled in the Academy. He has the potential to become a Time Lord."

The boy wondered whether anyone would bother asking him if he wanted to be a Time Lord. Didn't he get any choice in the matter?
