Somewhere far back in the early days of the universe [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] lands on a world lit by a dying sun. Missing from the Doctor's star maps and dotted with strange crystalline statues, it is a world ripe for exploration. But it is also a world of destruction. | Somewhere far back in the early days of the universe [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] lands on a world lit by a dying sun.

Venturing out onto its surface, the time travellers find themselves drawn into an age-old conflict between the two species residing on the planet - people of Light and Shadow. Proving a catalyst for the escalation of the conflict, the Doctor and his friends need either to create a peace or to pick a side. | Venturing out onto its surface, the time travellers find themselves drawn into an age-old conflict between the two species residing on the planet - people of Light and Shadow.
