Ohila, the leader of the Sisterhood of Karn, watched as a spaceship crashlanded near the horizon. "And here he is at last," she smiled. "The man to end it all. My sisters, the Doctor has returned to Karn. We have always known in our bones that one day he would return here. Such a pity he's dead."

The Eighth Doctor woke with a start, his eyes wide. "Cass!"
Ohila raised an eyebrow. "If you refer to your companion, we are still attempting to extract her from the wreckage."
"She wasn't my companion," the Eighth Doctor sighed, full of regret.
"She's almost certainly dead," Ohila returned. "No one could survive that crash."
The Eighth Doctor raised an eyebrow. "I did."
"No," she told him. "We restored you to life, but it's a temporary measure. You have a little under four minutes."
"Four minutes?" He scoffed. "That's ages. What if I get bored? I need a television, a couple of books. Anyone for chess? Bring me knitting."
Ohila rolled her eyes. "You have so little breath left. Spend it wisely."
"Hang on..." He squinted at her, recognising that razor-sharp wit. "Is it you? Am I back on Karn? You're the Sisterhood of Karn, Keepers of the Flame of Utter Boredom."
"Eternal life," she corrected, narrowing her eyes.
He gave a half-hearted grin. "That's the one."
