Is it at all possible that Gallifrey's destruction occured at a point in time ''before ''the final battle of the Time War, from the perspective of the non-combatant civilisations? That is to say, could the Time Lords have discovered evidence during the War that Gallifrey was already destined to be destroyed at some point in their personal future? Similar to how in the latest series, the Eleventh Doctor has already died at Lake Silencio in 2011 ''before ''his other adventures?

The end of Series 4 clearly suggested that they do, thus they needed to implant a link in the Master's mind. I think one of the main element of the war was that even if they knew something, they couldn't be certain of it, as the Timelady clearly indicated that the Daleks and the Timelords were changing history over and over again within the war. It is quite clear that the war went out of control and laws were violated even by the Timelord, with whatever changeable in their power were indeed manipulated. It is also quite clear that the aliens encountered thus far, whenever aware that Timelords are gone seem to have no knowledge of the time lock, and as to whether they believe Gallifrey to be destroyed or not, I think it would be largely irrelevant to most races as the Timelords are extremely ancient to most of the races that we have encountered and have knowledge of them, and they are shrouded in mystery. Most of them would know very little about society let alone the detail of their downfall. The aliens also seem to have no knowledge that Timelords have, through regenerations during the war, degenerated into an agressive race, so it is quite evident that they would all know very little about anything related to the war. --[[Special:Contributions/222.166.181.36|222.166.181.36]] 16:08, November 10, 2011 (UTC) | |||
