This Homeworld was located near the centre of the Galaxy, (PROSE: Dead Romance [+]Loading...["Dead Romance (novel)","Dead Romance"]) something that was also true of the pre-War homeworld of the Time Lords. (PROSE: Human Nature [+]Loading...["Human Nature (novel)"]) According to Cwej, some of the "time travellers" didn't invade the bottle, but instead set up colony-worlds within the "real" universe, (PROSE: Dead Romance [+]Loading...["Dead Romance (novel)","Dead Romance"]) something which the Homeworld generally perceived to be the original also did.
