Author's Notes:
Written for Challenge 586: Debt at dw100.

Summary: Gallifrey and all its people are gone.

“You owe us.” There was no voice on the still air, no living person to speak the words, but they filled the Doctor’s mind all the same. “You took us to war, and you doomed us all.”

It was true. To rid the universe of Daleks once and for all he’d set in motion events that destroyed his own people. Gallifrey was gone, and he was the last of the Time Lords.

“Yes,” he whispered. “I owe you, and it’s a debt I can never repay.”

Shoulders bowed beneath the weight of what he’d done, the War Doctor walked away.
