- The Doctor is put on trial by the Time Lords again. The first of two events from his resent past is presented as evidence of his interference in the affairs of other worlds. In particular, his actions on planet Ravalox.
- The Doctor is pulled out of his time stream and summoned to a Time Lord space station above Gallifrey. On his arrival it is announced by the Inquisitor that the Doctor will stand trial. Accused of conduct unbecoming a Time Lord, the Doctor refutes the allegations made against him and chooses to mount his own defense rather than entrust his fate to a fellow Time Lord. Opposing the Doctor and appearing for the prosecution is the Valeyard, an enigmatic figure who is clearly out for the Doctor. Suffering from short term memory loss as a result being taken out of time, and puzzled as to the absence of his companion Peri, the Doctor can only sit back and watch as the Valeyard mounts his case against the eccentric time traveler. The first piece of evidence is taken from the Matrix, the repository of all Time Lord knowledge. It chronicles the Doctor's interference in affairs of the planet Ravalox, a planet very similar to Earth and which was partly decimated by a fireball several centuries ago. Accompanied by Peri in this adventure, the Doctor and his young friend discover there is more to the planet than meets the eye. Why do the duo discover what appears to be an old abandoned subway station with an old sign that reads 'Marble Arch'? Who are the underground dwellers that live beneath the train station? What are the motivations of the Tribe of the Free who are ruled over by Queen Katryca? Why do the two villainous rogues, Glitz and Dibber, want to destroy the totem to the Free's god? And who or what is the god-like immortal of whom or of which the underground dwellers speak? As these questions and others are answered, the Doctor realizes he might be the only one capable of saving Ravalox from becoming the flash point of universal destruction.—Robert McElwaine
