Publisher's summary
Everything dies when the Daleks arrive. Friends, loved ones, even hope itself. As the people of Medrüth are about to discover, nothing can stand in their way. After all, the Daleks won the Last Great Time War. Right?
Plot
The Doctor and Valarie join Hoster on Medrüth, which is currently under attack from the New Dalek Paradigm. As they head to the bunker to collect Roanna and Hayden, the Daleks, who have learnt of the Doctor's existence from the Yearn, capture the TARDIS and the Doctor sends it away with his sonic screwdriver whilst Valarie and Hoster go on by jumping out of a window. A Dalek hits the Doctor with a stun ray and he wakes up with the Dalek Supreme, a Scientist, a Strategist and an Eternal, who demand to know how he survived the Time War as they believe that they won given that all other Time Lords are gone.
Roanna uses the Surge to save Valarie and Hoster from extermination and they take refuge in the bunker where they make plans to evacuate people aboard haulage freighters. Valarie sends out a message inviting people to the freighter silos and she and Roanna are caught by a Dalek, but by naming the Doctor and claiming to know of other Time Lords they ensure that they are kept alive as prisoners. The Daleks attempt to sublimate the Doctor into the Pathweb, where he encounters a Yearn which is eavesdropping on the Daleks as he does not want them to exterminate the Medrüthians and deprive his people. The Doctor's mental fortitude prevents sublimation and they torture him to break his will.
Valarie and Roanna are brought before the Dalek Supreme and claim to know the location of thousands of Time Lords and, to keep the couple from being exterminated, the Doctor summons the TARDIS with a promise to take the Daleks to the Time Lords. When he instead gets Valarie and Roanna safely inside, another attempt is made to sublimate him and he connects to the TARDIS's telepathic circuits to communicate with his friends, deciding that they need to attack the Pathweb with the help of the Yearn. Valarie and Roanna are also contacted by Hoster, who has managed to get some people aboard the freighters and is forced to close the doors on the remaining Medrüthians so that those already aboard can get away from the attacking Daleks.
Roanna pretends to agree to the Yearn's demand that the Medrüthians be kept from leaving and, after the Yearn takes control of the Daleks through the Pathweb, she reneges on her promise by telling Hoster to leave. The Daleks regain control and reduce the Yearn to base components, after which they destroy the escaping freighters and Roanna comes to regret not having given everyone the Surge as Mrs Hendricks had planned, something that the Doctor agrees would likely have saved her people from the genocide. Hayden too has been exterminated by a Special Weapons Dalek which found that three of its death rays could kill someone empowered by the Surge.
The Doctor, Valarie and Roanna leave in the TARDIS and the Prime Minister of the Daleks orders the planet's destruction, proclaiming that it is the first of many planets to fall in the New Dalek Paradigm's war against the universe. The TARDIS receives a mauve alert from the Shadow Proclamation along with numerous cries for help as the Daleks attack; the Doctor is reminded of the Time War and hopes that he will not have to become a warrior again.
