“She was important because we thought she was important. That's how everything happens. every war, every religion, every love story. We invest things with significance. so while the whole of creation was turning around her, it made her sheer existence more powerful than Time Lords and gods. In the end, the most important person was the most ordinary. a scared little girl making her baby safe.”
David Bishop, Doctor Who: Empire of Death
