== Events ==
=== Dated ===
On [[18 April]] , the city of [[San Francisco]] on [[Earth]] was ravaged by an [[earthquake]] and then consumed by [[fire]]. Thanks to the [[Seventh Doctor]]'s interference, the gateway through which the creature [[Azathoth]] and her [[rakshassi]] army hoped to invade Earth opened not in the [[India]] of [[1887]] but in the lobby of the [[Palace Hotel]]. Azathoth and her followers were consumed in the fire, while the Doctor, [[Ace]], [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]], [[Sherlock Holmes]] and [[John Watson|Dr Watson]] escaped. The Doctor departed for [[England]] to retrieve [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]], materialising in San Francisco mere moments after he left his companions, although the trip to England took three months. Holmes and Watson rejected the Doctor's offer to join him in his travels. He returned them to [[Baker Street]] in 1887. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[All-Consuming Fire (novel)|All-Consuming Fire]]'')
