Something akin to the story of Yarvelling, Drenz and Zolfian was one of the [[myth|creation myths]] formulated by species conquered by the Daleks about their oppressors. The myth, however, altered certain details, speaking of the "[[Ocean of Ooze|Sea of Ooze]]" and suggesting the [[Dalek War Machine]]s were originally intended to be autonomous robots. [[Human]] historians who recorded the myth at length in their history of the Daleks did not give it much credence, though they granted that, for one moment at least, the Yarvelling story may have briefly "become" the true origin of the Daleks at one point during the [[Last Great Time War]].

Indeed, the Time War-era Time Lords, in their scrutiny of Dalek history, became aware of a "very different origin story" for the Daleks and their Emperor which contradicted the [[Genesis Incident|known record]] of Davros. Opinions varied as to whether these accounts were apocryphal or evidence of Dalek activity in [[parallel universe|parallel dimensions]].

According to one account, the [[Eighth Doctor]] saw the Cathedral fused with fragments of [[Morbius]]' [[Red Capitol]] in the backwater where he triggered [[the Moment]].
