“Highest bridge in the universe!” The Doctor beamed at her companions. “What d’you think?”
 

The massive rock structure spanned a yawning chasm between two mountain peaks so tall they dwarfed Everest. Thanks to the denser atmosphere on this world, even so high up the air was still breathable.

 
Yaz leaned over the weathered, lichen-covered stone wall and peered down through roiling clouds.
 

“How high up are we?”

 
“Oh, about nine-thousand feet.”
 

“Wow! Ryan, you’ve got to see this! The view’s incredible!”

 
“I’m fine,” Ryan insisted. “I can see enough.”
 

“You okay?”
 

“Y’know I said heights don’t bother me? I lied.”
