This story from Time Lord Fairy Tales is partially based on Sleeping Beauty, though the first half put me more in mind of Underworld and the Greek mythology that story draws on and the second half took as much from The Ark in Space as it did from Sleeping Beauty. It's okay as a mishmash of previously told tales, but I'm not sure it's entirely consistent in its handling of the passage of time. But then I couldn't always be sure who was awake on each long voyage, so maybe it's fine in that regard. Still, not much to recommend if you're not a Time Tot.

It's still well written enough and written in that sort of style that it could probably be higher, but like, you can't just write your own story about the wirrn and call it a fairy tale, much less a 'Time Lord' fairy tale. Why are the Time Lords telling this to their young? It's better than 90% of other things things I've put at 5/10, but I don't think I can give it higher because of the framing device. Like Liked 2
