Missy remained on Skaro for a while longer, writing a postcard to the Doctor in which she mentioned the Petrified Forest and the [[Ocean of Ooze]]. She also took a [[Slyther]] as her pet, which ate any Thal they encountered. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Postcards from the Universe (short story)|Postcards from the Universe]]'')
