Every Village Needs a Shaman





Are You a Wise Fool, Jon Snow, 
or a Clever Fool..?

Yeah, you ignored The Comet, didn't you?
I won't say "I Told You So" - What would be The Point?
Being Right Means Never Having to Say "I Told You So".
That's Prideful Arrogance.


MISS HAWTHORNE [on TV]: 
I know perfectly well you're on the air. That's why I'm here. 

Get Your Hands off Me, Young Man! Let Me Go!

 I've come here to protest, and protest I shall. 

FERGUS: 
Now this is Miss Hawthorne, 
a prominent local resident who's 
very much opposed to Professor Horner's dig. 
Professor Horner, I believe you two have already met? 

LITTLE JACK HORNER: 
I'll say. The daft woman's 
been pestering me for weeks. 

MISS HAWTHORNE : 
I've been trying to make you see reason. 

FERGUS: 
Miss Hawthorne, why are you 
so opposed to this dig? 

HAWTHORNE: 
Because This Man is tampering with 
forces he does not understand.

LITTLE JACK HORNER: 
Oh, come on now. 

HAWTHORNE: 
You'll bring Destruction on yourself and upon 
the whole area if you persist --
Death and Disaster await You. 

Believe Me, I know. 

FERGUS: 
But that's just it -- Why should we believe you 
and how do you know? 

HAWTHORNE: 
I'm a Witch. 

HORNER: 
You see? I told you she was daft. 

FERGUS: 
Miss Hawthorne, you don't really mean to say...
[Yes, she does. LISTEN to her...] 

HAWTHORNE: 
I Tell You I'm a Witch! 

White, of course, but that is why 
You should Listen to Me. 

I know! 

FERGUS: 
Well, thank you very much, Miss Hawthorne, 
for a most interesting -- 

HAWTHORNE: 

I've cast The Runes -- 

I've consulted the talisman of Mercury --

It's written in The Stars. 

April 19th 2017 - A Third Pillar of Hercules Appears in The Sky
The Middle Path.

When Beltane is come, tread softly, 
for lo, the prince himself is nigh.



LEELA: 
There's no point in further discussion. -- 
Discussion is for The Wise, or The Helpless, 
and I am neither!

RODAN: 
Then what are you going to do? 

LEELA: 
Well, if the Doctor wished me banished, I'll be banished. 

RODAN: 
You will surrender? 


LEELA: 
No! You talk always of Surrender! 
Are all Your Tribe like this!? 

RODAN: 
We are rational. 

LEELA: 
You are Cowards! 

No, if The Doctor wished me banished, 
it was for a reason. 


RODAN: 
Reason dictates The Doctor is a Traitor. 

LEELA: 
Never! 

RODAN: 
Reason dictates! 

LEELA: 
Then Reason is a liar! 

RODAN: 
And if I am right? 

LEELA: 
Then I am Wrong, and 
I Will face The Consequence -- 

Are You coming? 

(Rodan nods and takes Leela's outstretched hand.)
