The narrative assertion
"The Doctor and Vicki learn about the 'Crater of Needles' from a Menoptra transmission (beat_ac799d168f5a2f1b). Ian learns about the Crater of Needles from Vrestrin (beat_19a33127ec00811a). Both conversations point towards the same location, solidifying it as the next point the team needs to attack."
