Clockwork Men

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 68677

According to the young man with the ancient eyes, the clockwork men were impersonating various popular figures in Allarian society in order to tap into the energy of popularity. The synapses that fire when a popular figure is admired is very close to the synapses that control all human behavior. The clockwork men believe they can short circuit human minds this way, breaking through the mental blocks concerning the energy manipulation called 'magic'. With magic as their weapon, the clockwork men would overwhelme this time period and fufill their true function, to make it so no Time Lords ever existed.
Of course, this was all mostly gibberish to Astra and Velus. The Doctor lightly touches their temples and it translates, in their minds to a short, basic concept.
The Clockwork Men want to steal magic from wizards and kill the Doctor as a child. Their base seems to be in the caves, as the Dragon is a powerful source of magic.
Velus, always up for a quest, offers his assistance. Astra is unsure, until the Doctor demonstrates he has clothing that she can wear without adverse affects. This earns her trust.
Where is Fred?

  1. Fred was dead.
  2. Fred had been hiding in the Tardis.
  3. Insane.
  4. Now a dog. The Clockwork Men had stored some bad mojo in him, instead of processing it.
