Even Rory felt awed, looking up at the vast, timeless structure built of a curiously opalescent stone. For sheer size it put even the biggest cathedrals on earth to shame, and its magnificence was enough to make anyone’s heart soar with joy.
“What is it, and why was it built?”
Hands in his pockets, the Doctor rocked back on his heels. “It’s a bit of a sad story. It was originally a monastery, a retreat where people would come from across the universe to heal their souls.”
“So what is it now?” Amy asked.
“A factory. They make door handles.”
