And after that....
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 8706
|
Once that day's session of the newly formed United Nations has concluded,
the news is passed on to the Regent and other interested parties. Dr. What
and his brother blink at some of what happens next. Apparently Count Probe,
Inquirer's father, had gone ahead and informed the Regent of Ethiopia of
events, but she'd had the Doctor repeat his tale for the edification of
the other rulers present.
Which he does.... "Although Inquirer was still clutching the note as the TARDIS and herself dematerialised," the Timelord says, "she did show me what was in it first. Apparently Inquirer isn't the only one to have gone with my 'brother'. Sigin 2, Gilmuriel, E'eysha, B'Elenna and Elrondir have all done so too, albeit in more conventional fashion. They send their fond farewells to everyone, and hope people will understand, but they couldn't pass up the opportunity of seeing the universe." Apparently some of them already some of it..... "When I gave Elrondir and the others....the elves the I'd met within that Forest (re: 7472) I soon found them very special," Ke'lan says softly as he holds his wife- to-be's hand, "Their hearts may now be elven, but elfin or not they still wished to take up the lifestyle that they'd grown fond of.....of wandering and adventure." "Aye, I sometimes miss those days of adventure...and since E'eysha is my analog/sister....." Queen Astra says softly. "As well as Gilmuriel being my brother......" Fred the manfox also says softly, worried about the noble female AI. "Which they'd get when they talked their Teacher into checking upon Dr. Who's lack of Teacher," Ke'lan continues with a slight, "Though I'm gladdened that my suggestion to them concerning their desires for adventure had satisfied several needs....Dr. Who and his companions in particular.....I had no idea that something like this would come......" I only suggested that they for I'm going out with them....vicariously through the tales they will tell me and my love, Grailing sighs to himself, remembering how his heart had soared when he'd actually began and really experienced the world outside....as he never could under the crushing weight of his station (that his parents....may they burn!......kept reminding him of!)
Dr. Which looks like he wants to question the elfin Emperor about that, but decided to save it for later....if ever. Apparently, when the Doctor had told them about this Rule 1 telling Dr. Who that haste would be needed (re: 8672) any question as to just "why" Sigin 2 and the others hadn't stayed longer and given an appropriate goodbye had become clear. Dr. Who wasn't in a position to wait overly long for something like that. Not with the situation as it was! "At least I and my brother will be able to find out quickly as to Inquirer's health," the Doctor says reassuringly to the big Ai/golem (who looks exactly like that chap, Arnold something or other). The AI nods silently, secretly holding back tears of grief and anxiety. The Doctors and Companions leave, but due to some Powerful interference, they don't return until a week later (much to the anxiety of some).
