Matildus tells the Doctor, Clara, Amy and Lynk, the story of Azrael: | Matildus tells the Doctor, Clara, Amy and Lynk, the story of Azrael: | ||
"He was the first [[Necrotist]], a man who inspired a black stream of madness that flows through the universe to this day. A Necrotist is an artist who believes that murder is the only true form of creativity: that life must be stolen in order for art to blossom. Where a Necrotist walks, tragedy follows. Azrael was a genius who came from a world where death had been conquered, where immortality was fact. His brilliance turned his people's science against him. They perished in a flood of measureless agony. It was his first "statement". Many more soon followed. Some said his face was so terrible that to merely look upon it would summon death. Others claimed it was so beautiful it would drive the beholder mad. Whatever the truth, Azrael chose to wear a mask carved from the skull of the last [[Magellan]] | "He was the first [[Necrotist]], a man who inspired a black stream of madness that flows through the universe to this day.

If it ever truly existed it has been lost to myth. But history records in harrowing detail a slaughter that spanned three centuries and countless worlds. Azrael lived and died ten thousand years ago. When he was finally captured, he stood calmly upon his execution block and spoke four words, "Death is my ally." He was the Sculptor of Grief. The Poet of Corruption. The Architect of Despair." | ||
After the story has been told, they hear a scream. Horatio and Amy set off in search of Albert. They find him, crystallised. He shatters in front of them. Clara and the Doctor follow. They then find the TARDIS. The Doctor is overjoyed. But then the door opens and Azrael steps out. He tells the Doctor that time belongs to him and that he should take solace in the fact that the universe is now his canvas before the TARDIS dematerialises... | After the story has been told, they hear a scream.
