Before the Time Lords created the Web of Time, the universe obeyed no laws of physics, and [[magic]] was a powerful force. There existed cities with buildings carved from mile-high arches of [[ivory]], with streets made of [[cobweb]] and gardens tended by stone men. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]]'') Many [[human]]s had semi-[[god|divine]] powers: for instance, [[Arjuna]] had one thousand arms and was ardently skilled at compressing time, while [[Nakula and Sahadeva]] led armies of imaginary [[hybrid]] animals made of broken time. The [[Great Houses]]' plan for ending the Dvapara Yuga involved starting the [[Kurukshetra war]] between the [[Pandava]]s and [[Kaurava]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dharmayuddha (short story)|Dharmayuddha]]'') [[River Song]] noted a theory that the [[SporeShip]]s were leftover weapons from the war that wiped out the previous universe.

[[Luke Smith]] theorised that the rules of [[astrology]] were based on the laws of physics of the previous universe, which is why the [[Ancient Lights]] seemed to conform to them despite them contradicting conventional physics.

One source indicated that the only thing that existed before the Big Bang was a particle of [[space]] and [[time]] smaller than an [[atom]].

[[Iris Wildthyme]] knew that the [[Time Lord|mysterious people]] of [[the Clockworks]] originated from the previous universe but had crossed the rapids between cosmoses to tend their [[Spiral Politic|Tale Without Meaning]] to the exclusion of everything else. Their [[TARDIS|Wordship]]s each began as single sounds carried over from the pre-universe, amplified and refined, until it became alive and was added to the Tale.
