The '''10,000 Dawns''' was an artificial [[multiverse]] of ten thousand alternative [[universe]]s that lived alongside one another and occasionally bled into each other. The [[Christmas Needle Agreement]], with all the Forces of Power that were needed being present, allowed for harmony to be restored throughout the Multiverse and beyond.


As a [[computer]] programmed by the Superiors of [[Chris Cwej]] put it, the Dawns were reigned over by an inferior race of creatures with primitive conceptual threading abilities, the [[Firmament]], who used a method of travelling through space on resizable [[moon]]s, known as [[Foces]], through the [[Time Vortex|Bifrost]]. As they broke the Agreement, the Superiors sent Chris to retaliate. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Bright White Crack (short story)|A Bright White Crack]]'')

The 10,000 Dawns was an artificial multiverse of ten thousand alternative universes that lived alongside one another and occasionally bled into each other. The Christmas Needle Agreement, with all the Forces of Power that were needed being present, allowed for harmony to be restored throughout the Multiverse and beyond.

  • The 10,000 Dawns are the main setting of the 10,000 Dawns series.
  • The 10,000 Dawns' relationship to the Doctor Who universe could be interpreted as being further explored in Jayce Black's A 10,000 Dawns Christmas short story Winter's View, in which a pair of "chronarchs" hire transtemporal investigators to investigate the Dawns. The chonarchs fear the version of humanity from the Dawns might become a potential enemy. The story ends with the chronarchs deciding to try to sway their people to democratically decide to destroy the Dawns, and with the investigators speculating that in the centuries it will take Chronarchs to do so the Dawns will become too powerful to be erased.
