In a cycle that went on for 4.5 billion years, ([[TV]]: ''[[Hell Bent (TV story)|Hell Bent]]'') the Doctor arrived in a teleporter at the top of a tower inside his [[confession dial]], and was pursued by [[the Veil]], a clockwork creatue whose form was taken from his childhood nightmares, until he fed it confessions. At the end of each cycle, the Doctor reached a wall of solid [[azbantium]] and, inspired by the [[Brothers Grimm]] story of the shepherd's boy, punched at the wall until the Veil fatally burned him. Too badly injured to regenerate, the Doctor dragged himself back to the top of the tower and burned up his body to provide the energy needed to load a copy of himself at the moment of his arrival from the teleporter's hard drive, continuing the cycle until he finally broke through the wall.
