m (Cousin Ettolrhc moved page User:Cousin Ettolrhc/Sandbox/The War King's Homeworld to User:The War King's Homeworld: we really need a page for this, and although this draft isnt perfect, I think it being in the main namespace will help accelerate improvement) |

''[[The Book of the War]]'' stated that it "assume[ed] that the Homeworld generally ''percieved'' to be the original, was in fact the original", whilst admiting this was "by no means certain" ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|The Book of the War (novel)|namepart=The Nine Homeworlds}}) | ''[[The Book of the War]]'' stated that it "assume[ed] that the Homeworld generally ''percieved'' to be the original, was in fact the original", whilst admiting this was "by no means certain" ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|The Book of the War (novel)|namepart=The Nine Homeworlds}}) | ||
However, numerous other accounts held seemingly distinct [[Gallifrey]]s to be [[original Gallifrey|the original]].

''[[The Book of the War]]'' also speculated that any of the [[Nine Gallifreys|eight cloneworlds]] could easily believe themselves to be the original, offering an explanation as to why multiple Gallifreys claimed to be so.

After [[Lady President]] [[Romana III]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'') mysteriously disappeared from this Homeworld, [[Head of the Presidency (The Book of the War)|the new 412th President]], 95 years before the War, supported the [[intervention]]ists' idea that [[War in Heaven|the War]] was an impossibility, as any [[The Enemy|possible enemy]] could just be neutralised with ease.

([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|Crimes Against History (short story)|var=second edition|namedpart=Modern Time: The Paradox Era|name=CAH}}) Because of this, 76 years before the War, [[The War King|the renegade who would later become the War King]] forced his way into the President's office to warn him of the Enemy and future War. However, the President re-affirmed his denial of any possibility of a [[The Enemy|threatening enemy]], even when the rest of the [[ruling House]]s were convinced. | ||
Thirty-five years before the War, the renegade returned yet again and was immediately arrested. During his trial the President declared the [[Faraway Declaration]], intending to set up a [[colony]] on the planet [[Faraway]], allegedly "the [[homeworld]] of [[the Enemy]]", to disprove of their existence, and left [[Umbaste]] as a "temporary President". ([[PROSE]]: {{cite source|The Book of the War (novel)|namedpart=The Faraway Declaration}}) However, this President was instead returned to the Homeworld later than planned, and as the [[First Message from the Enemy]], leading to Umbaste staying president. | Thirty-five years before the War, the renegade returned yet again and was immediately arrested.

An account which treated this Homeworl as the original stated that after the "Fall of the Homeworld", the remaining eight cloneworlds which had, by that point, created more cloneworlds still, re-opened communications, creating a new "united front".
