'' | * The [[Morax (species)|Morax]] were an ancient [[species]] who were captured and imprisoned on [[Earth]] for [[war crime]]s. | ||
* In their natural form, the Morax appeared as tendrils of [[mud]], but could possess [[human]]s. | |||
* [[Witch-hunt]]s occurred in [[Lancashire]] in the [[17th century]]. | |||
* The Morax [[army]] was incarcerated inside [[Pendle Hill]], close to the [[village]] of [[Bilehurst Cragg]]. | |||
* Bilehurst means "sacred [[tree]] on a [[hill]]". The tree served as a [[lock]] for the Morax. | |||
* When the tree was cut down in the [[1600s]], the Morax started to ooze out and take over [[human]] [[body|bodies]], both reanimated [[corpse]]s and living hosts. | |||
* Old [[Mother Twiston]] was condemned as a [[witch]] but came back as a Morax. | |||
* [[Team TARDIS]]' attempt to deal with the Morax was hampered by [[King]] [[James I]] of [[England]], who was a "big fan" of witch-hunting. | |||
* James I [[reign]]ed as [[King of England]] from [[1603]] to [[1625]]. | |||
* Yaz observed that [[hatred]] was worse than the Morax, as neighbour turned against neighbour. | |||
* Though [[dicken]]s and [[hanging]]s are gone, hatred still exists today. Yaz notes that we are all "part of one home". | |||
* [[Willa Twiston]] is quoted: ''"I'll be with you, in the [[water]], in the [[fire]], in the [[air]], in the [[Earth]]."'' | |||
