Song of Aten's Arsenal: Difference between revisions

The '''Song of Aten's Arsenal''' was a [[Gendar (species)|Gendar]] legend. It spoke of the [[Sun Builder]] weapon [[Giles]] knew as the [[Greater Key]], although it described the artefact as a silver rod, and gave it a different name than "the Greater Key". It related the possible dire consequences of using the Greater Key, claiming that it would act like a malicious [[genie]], creating a timeline where activating the Key was not necessary, but not necessarily in the way that the Key's user would expect or want. Maxie summarised the Song of Aten's Arsenal to Giles when he showed her that the Greater Key had found its way to [[P.R.O.B.E.]]'s custody.

[[Aten]] was a solar deity of Ancient Egypt. Thus, the title can be understood as a poetic way of referring to the arsenal of the [[Sun Builder]]s, of which the [[Greater Key]] was an example. Alternatively, given that the Greater Key is implied to be the same artefact as [[the Moment]], which was shown in ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'' to be kept in the [[Omega Arsenal]], "Aten's Arsenal" may be an alternative name for the Omega Arsenal, using "Aten" as another name for [[Omega]].
