He told Ace they were going to [[the Obscura]], an old battlefield, where he claimed a weapon was stored in a station guarded by his old mentor [[Danna]]. They discovered Daleks | He told Ace they were going to [[the Obscura]], an old battlefield, where he claimed a weapon was stored in a station guarded by his old mentor [[Danna]]. They discovered Daleks had already started infiltrating the station, being immobilised by Danna and he was concerned when one of the wounded [[Dalek]]s started to transmit. He showed the Dalek in the hold the picture of the Obscura and it screamed. In truth he was leaking information about the Obscura deliberately to bring the Daleks there as a trap, planning for Danna to fire a perfect shot to trigger the Dalek fleet‘s destruction. He’d been planning this trick for sometime, as he’d known that the Time War was going to happen from the scarred soldier who told him about the Obscura in his youth came from a battle in this war, not an ancient one. She revealed that she couldn’t make the shot due to her advanced age and with the Daleks approaching he killed her to stop her being a liability. Upon their arrival he tried to deceive the Daleks that Ace was the secret weapon, stalling long enough to open the station’s shutters on the Daleks and they saw the true power of the Obscura. With their eyes closed, he sent Ace back to their TARDIS while he returned to the control room to ensure the station’s destruction took the Dalek fleet with it. He was taunted by Danna‘s voice, though was unsure if that was his guilt or an effect of the Obscura. Ace overheard his confessions to Danna via the scanner and confronted him in the TARDIS, furiously denouncing him as a coward. In fury he showed Ace his mind and all the terrible things he’d done in his life. Following this, he wiped her mind of Gallifrey and the War and left her on [[20th century]] Earth, saying that he would check on her from time to time. He then fled the War, sending a message to Gallifrey that invasion was imminent. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Soldier Obscura (audio story)|Soldier Obscura]]'') Afterwards he meddled in Ace‘s timeline as far back as her travels with the Doctor, which resulted in [[Narvin]] being unable to track either of them down.

He returned Narvin to Gallifrey with a message for Romana. In the message he reflected that the Time War was always going to happen and the Doctor was right to abandon the war like he had and that Romana should too.
