Biblios. The only planet in the universe that Patience could think of running to as the horrors of the Time War became unbearable. It wasn't going to erase those horrific memories from her mind but the library planet offered her the chance to escape and the opportunity to try and wrap her head around everything that had taken place on what was once such a serene planet. Those secret classes, the one herself and only a select few attended, they had been to prepare them for this exact war - which meant her Government had known all about it and nothing had been done sooner - instead the high powered Gallifreyans had decided to take it upon themselves to make Time Lords the most superior race and they were determined to wipe out those ruthless metal killers that were attempting to stand in their way.
All around them their people were dying before them, their screams piercing through their ears and threatening to haunt them for the rest of their time, and yet all they cared for was themselves - the 'soldiers' they had trained would give their own lives to save them. Everything about it was wrong and Patience knew that but her thoughts conflicted against everything she had been brought up to believe and instead of the plan of action going as smoothly as they had been told it would things started to go wrong and before she could even stop herself she found her legs carrying her as far away from the Citadel in the quickest time possible. There was no plan as to where she was going or what she was even doing but the second a stranded TARDIS came into view she didn't hesitate at all about racing straight inside and just sending the owner-less ship into the Time Vortex.....
The room in which her newly obtained ship had materialized was, luckily, deserted as she collapsed back against one of the overflowing bookcases - a pain thumping it's way through her head as she desperately tried to slim her thoughts of the past few days from her mind - she was failing miserably but she was damned if she was going to start giving up now. Were all her people dead now? Was the war still going on? There was nothing but an endless stream of unanswered questions as her tired frame slid down the edge of the bookcase until she found herself sitting on the marble floor beneath her. To stay here indefinitely was not the best idea to go through the mind of a Time Lord but Patience had never even been beyond her own planet - the knowledge of other worlds was there but how to get there wasn't. The only reason she had even known of this one was simply down to the love she held for books. When not in classes, or secretly being trained, she would have her head buried inside a book absorbing every bit of information her mind was capable of holding. It was her only escape and now, thankfully, all she had around her were the objects that prevented her from going insane.
