As the [[Vardon-Kosnax War]] approaches the planet [[Xeriphas]], the [[Xeraphin]] Senate is divided over which course of action to take. The [[Vardon]] have a longstanding peace agreement with the Xeraphin, but they are equally prepared to destroy Xeriphas to keep its valuable knowledge away from the [[Kosnax|Kosnak]]. During the course of the heated debate, [[First Doctor|a visitor]] arrives on Xeriphas and offers his assistance to the Xeraphin Senate Principal. | As the [[Vardon-Kosnax War]] approaches the planet [[Xeriphas]], the [[Xeraphin]] Senate is divided over which course of action to take.

At the Doctor's direction, most of the Xeraphin are transformed into beings of pure energy and sent to a storage unit called "the sarcophagus". This sarcophagus serves as both the largest database in the [[universe]] and also an immensely powerful weapon, but when operated, it emits dangerous levels of [[radiation]]. After the last few Xeraphin enter, the Doctor tampers with the defence shields so that the fleets can enter the trap, and he departs. | At the Doctor's direction, most of the Xeraphin are transformed into beings of pure energy and sent to a storage unit called "the sarcophagus".
