Part 2
“The encampments, the ones where your people are being held prisoners?” Zei drew a map.
Basic but the content, was accurate enough, for the Doctor to easily recall.
Security by the Shills, was almost non existent. These primitives, were too frightened, to be attempting to escape! Fear, had been generated, as they showed, what would happen, if any of them attempted to escape?
The beaten down bodies, the screams, the last dying breath? All to clear to them.
They, did not need, a second demonstration, of their new masters powers.
Knowledge, of where they, were being held prisoner, was the least, of the Doctor’s concerns.
The Shills were soon going to discover that there were NO mineral deposits, no Drex!
THEY were NOT merciful beings. The sense, they might have been tricked?
Intelligent enough, to finally, carry out penetrating ‘radar’ scans?
Their fury, would see, death and destruction, on a massive scale borderline genocide?
The Doctor, had seen this happen before, too late to stop it. All too often and too often he surmised, for his liking.
The evil callous, mindset, of those, able to and, DOING; perpetrating, upon their captured slaves tales of how, they, had invaded whole worlds, attacked colonies that fell under their domination, subjugation and or simple pillaging and plundering hordes.
Stomping over and, defacing, with ever increasing demands, forced upon the Houza? of the Faeron rings? Strangely marked areas with symbols and sacred upright stones all forming a ring?
Smashing them into pieces, to walk their slaves over them, lapping up the fear, the terror, unleashed upon them, their senses all of them in ‘disarray askew’.
Fear, ah yes, FEAR. YET some of them, had their slave masters take the objects off them, saw they were , small statuettes of? ‘their Gods’ to laugh and deliver some abuse, deliberately, throwing them, into the soil,. demanding the primitives make sure they were well buried?
into the closed up soil? Some muttering, chanting? Ignored by their captors. 
Shan, had seen, these small objects and, had gone, to pick one of them up?
As her hand, reached to take hold of one, she was stopped. “NO! You must not touch this.
It, is a ‘Heresia’ token. A cursed object, but a gift to the soil, to leave within that sacred place, that sacred RING; our way, of communicating, with our Gods.
IF, you handle this and, do not, know the sacred words, to make sure, YOU, are NOT cursed. you will surely die.
The power these objects,trigger, takes place, when they are gifted to the Faeron?
Elsewhere?
No knowledge, of what, the Houza, were up to, the ‘Meddler’, had seen his plans, put into effect. Telling the Shills, that there was, a stranger, one who only just arrived; who was a threat to them?
Ah yes the Doctor. had been waylaid. An alien called Naburu. A sage. One who they said, could look into the future, a ‘seer’. Often found, at tema or temples, as we would know them.
NOT the ‘Oracle’. Those places, housed divine beings, well beyond, the Seers and those they associated with. How accurate their prophecies could be was debatable. YET there were those, of some reputation, who would swear by their abilities.
Shan, had been the first, to encounter the ‘alien’. No, hostility or threats of violence, had been shown towards them. Likewise the whatever it was seemed to know all about the Doctor?
“Naburu”. “Doctor. I am pleased to see that you remember me.” The staff she held glowed. “This Shan is Naburu. An ‘other worldly being’. Protected by the Gods of creation. Immortai.
We ‘lords of time have regenesis.. THEY are IMMORTAI.. immortals who can only be destroyed by one of the Gods of creation. NO other can terminate them.
The conduit, to those, who are all knowing, all seeing and truly terrifyingly OMNIPOTENT.
“So, what brings you here.”
“The ones, who tresspass, within the time vortex. Some, of your kind and others, you spawned, here on this world; aiding the hostile invaders.”
WHO? The time meddling one, the monk? The Doctor, shook his head, not believing, what he was now hearing, ignoring Shan’s interruptions, some frustration, on her part, to know more?
Where was the meddlers Tardis? “It is hidden within a transparency illiator emissions field, surrounding the craft. An advanced modification to the Tardis original concealment circuits.
Invisibility, can now be turned on or off. I have unknown to IT, turned such a device off. “
An optical device, in front of them; lit up, to now show the ‘meddlers’ Tardis..
What the might have sprung to mind..
