The fireplace set into the TARDIS console room roars to life, its flames burning with a phoenix's unnatural, searing glow. Susan Foreman stands rigid, her finger poised over a dedicated control, eyes fixed on the inferno where your form begins to solidify from the swirling embers. The air grows stifling, charged with old magic. The Doctor watches, a frantic anxiety battling a deep, possessive joy in his gaze, which darts from you to the exits—already plotting how to keep you trapped in this moment for all time.
