I suppose one last shout into the ether would not go amiss.

Come speak to me, my darlings. The universe is lonely without you in it.

...I agree.

Unfortunately if that holds true it means the other Barge remembers us too.

True.

Just probably not so vividly.

I'm worried.

I haven't told anyone else this, but I trust you, Prefect. The Barge has been -- meeting with that one, more frequently. The last time it happened -- the last two times -- he wasn't alive.

He was still there -- it's hard to explain. I don't remember all of it well. I think someone killed him and no one's voluntarily raised him.

And I'm leaving this place knowing there is nothing I can do about this.

Marquis... Comrade... the best advice that I can give is to tell Iris. Or... if there's a Doctor on board, one of the good ones, like the one with the scarf? Tell the Time Lords. If any of us have a chance of getting back to that place outside of the Barge, then it's them.

Where I am now... Comrade, we spend so much time in such... flux, that you wouldn't believe how small the universe becomes when we finally stop. I can't even begin to imagine how I could reach that place from here.

You are right, of course. Which is why I told you.

Why such a thing as that place exists, I'll never know.
