Another Time, Another Galaxy

Susan names this distant prospect during her anxious talk outside the tent in the Gobi Desert, framing it as a longed-for escape from Marco Polo's stalled caravan, the Doctor's sulking silence, and endless wandering. It promises stability and a true home, untouched by desert hardships or arranged marriages, pulling at her frustration with their stranded life. No details of stars or worlds emerge; it stands as pure yearning for elsewhere amid the night's chill and flickering torchlight.
