"...and the sheperd boy says..." "...twelve millions years into the future..." "...a little bird comes, and sharpens his beak..." "...a billion years..." "...you must think it's a hell of a long time..." "It's eternity in there, Harry."

Okay, I think the bird is a Doctor Who reference, and "eternity in there" I recognized from Emesis Blue but apparently it's from The Jaunt. The rest I can't really place.

Everything but the last one is Doctor Who. As he dies and repeats his adventure, he tells the story of a king who goes to ask a sheperd boy the meaning of eternity, and as he dies, lives and dies again, the Doctor tells the story, while counting how long he's been in the castle.
