=== Return to Skaro===

====The second Quatch assault====

Davros finally returned to Skaro, decades after he left, with the Quatch, after the latter had captured some of Davros' loyal Daleks and made preparations for a second attack on Skaro. After the [[Quatch mothership]] landed in the hub of the Dalek City, Davros teleported to the Thal incubation [[laboratory]] after two Quatch also teleported in and extinguished the [[fire]] that [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (Unbound Universe)|the Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart of the Unbound Universe]] and [[Nadel]] had started. Desiring to avert the conflict between the Daleks and the Quatch, as well as restore the Daleks to his original vision for them, Davros ordered the Quatch to take Alistair and Nadel to a holding cell, along with any Daleks the Quatch found; however, he remained undecided as to whether to convert the Thals into Daleks, or to simply [[Extermination|exterminate]] them all in revenge for their [[ancestor]]s' actions in the Kaled-Thal War.

After learning from the [[Unbound Doctor]] the truth of the Quatchs' instigation of the Kaled-Thal War, Davros was furious with the Quatch for deceiving him. Although he initially did not believe in the Quatchs' role in the Kaled-Thal War, Davros noted that their [[reason]]s for starting the War were consistent with their [[behaviour]]s; Davros even found it [[humour]]ous that he never once previously considered the Quatch to be the aggressors responsible for starting the Kaled-Thal War, noting that the Quatchs' tactics during the War were highly inferior to those of the Thals. Deciding that he could no longer serve the Quatch Empire after being manipulated for decades, Davros decided to betray them and finally achieve revenge against the aggressors that crippled him and led him to create the Daleks. In this moment, Davros proved that he was a deceptive [[strategist]], having secretly incorporated a system into the technology stabilising the Quatch in the Unbound Universe that could force the Quatch back to their native dimension. In the final moments before he died, Davros proudly stated that, although his death was not how he had imagined it, he felt that the scenario "[struck] the appropriate note!"

In stark contrast to [[the Doctor]] and [[Davros]] of [[N-Space]], who shared a strong personal rivalry that lasted throughout most of each other's lives, ([[TV]]: ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'' et al.) the Davros of the Unbound Universe did not know the Unbound Doctor at all until the duo encountered each other onboard the Quatch mothership during the Quatchs' second attack on Skaro; the Doctor argued to the Daleks assisting in the infiltration of the Quatch mothership that the lack of a close relationship between himself and Davros made him more suitable for informing Davros of the Quatchs' actions in the Kaled-Thal War, as he would provide less "emotional baggage". Even then, the Doctor and Davros only interacted with each other for a matter of [[minute]]s before Davros's [[self-sacrifice]], yet the two ultimately came to [[respect]] each other ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Masters of War (audio story)|Masters of War]]'') in a similar vein to their N-Space counterparts.
