Order of Omicron [The 10th Doctor, Irish, Jacie Hunter]
3 parts
Plot by Alfred C. "Tuna" Snider
[First episode of the Dreams of Ancient Days Series]

In his tenth persona, the Doctor carries on in his adventuresome, curious, and meddlesome ways. However, at the closing of the adventure NO TIME FOR LOVE, clones of Rasillon and Omega, with memories stolen from the Matrix itself by the Rani, reveal to the Doctor that long ago, during his first generation, his mind was edited so that he would not remember the details of  the most traumatic event of any of the Doctor's lives, the death of Loradneuropaea [Lora], his spouse and Susan's grandmother. After a period of time of which the Doctor has no recollection, he and his grand daughter Susan began their wanderings long ago, in a TARDIS they didn't necessarily steal, but one that was "left open" for them to take. It would be better for the Timelords if the Doctor just wandered away. Now, after the clones told him of this and were able to lift some of the editing of his memories (just before they turned into puddles of organic good), those memories are slowly returning to the Doctor. In his dreams he sees faces and hears voices from that time. The Doctor decides to seek these faces and voices and, eventually, to regain his memories and face up to a painful past.
