This story takes place around an actual event. On May 28, 1983, the Grímsvötn volcano located within the western part of the Vatnajökull ice cap in Iceland erupted and continued to erupt until June 1. The eruption was preceded by minor earthquake activity that began in December 1982 - March 1983 and increased gradually in April and May.

Knowledge of either fandom or the first story is helpful but not necessary, as all information needed is provided in the story. The Doctor’s traveling companion, Jason, is an original character. To see who's who, you can check out my live journal --> here. Need I state that the rating is for language?
