Zellin and Rakaya not Eternals?[[edit source]]
Based on the episode Can You Hear Me? (TV story) Zellin considers himself and Rakaya to be immortals but not Eternals.
The dialogue is the same as the script at http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/writersroom/scripts/doctor-who-s12-ep7-can-you-hear-me.pdf :
We immortals need our games, Doctor. Eternity is long -- and we are cursed to see it all. The Eternals have their games, the Guardians have their power struggles. For me, this dimension is a beautiful board for a game. The toymaker would approve.
The Guide to the Dark Times apparently has a picture of them under 'Eternals' though. So which is right?

- The article cites The Guide to the Dark Times (short story) as the source for Rakaya being an eternal. Actual stories trump scripts which are not what we consider "in universe". Shambala108 ☎ 03:58, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry, I was unclear: What it says in the script was also what was said in the actual episode Can You Hear Me? (TV story). I've corrected my initial question accordingly. --Irrevenant ☎ 04:07, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
