However, the TARDIS took the infection and fragments of the original [[timeline]] into itself, preserving the essence of the Third Doctor who didn't die on Dust.

Over his five millennia in the ship, he trained its [[spider]]s to be his scouts and lookouts.

The Eighth Doctor was uncertain which timeline would become real. However, afterwards, his [[shadow]] reappeared, suggesting the biodata virus was no longer a part of his timeline; this led [[Compassion]] to speculate, speaking to [[Fitz Kreiner]], that the Doctor's visit to Dust had indeed been unwritten from [[history]]. However, she also believed the War in Heaven at large had been averted ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'') | The Eighth Doctor was uncertain which timeline would become real.
