Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Law was a central part of the cosmology of the Michael Moorcock Multiverse, having been introduced in the 1961 Elric of Melniboné story While the Gods Laugh. This version of Law was officially integrated into the Doctor Who universe with The Coming of the Terraphiles [+]Loading...["The Coming of the Terraphiles (novel)"], but Doctor Who essayists such as Elizabeth Sandifer in TARDIS Eruditorum have argued for Moorcockian Law being a key inspiration for the duality of the White and Black Guardians in Season 16.
