The Doctor, meanwhile, calls Brax overdramatic. Well, at least he isn't the Master. ‘I should have guessed,’ mused the Doctor. ‘Braxiatel was always a grand master of political chess. A formidable actor too, though a little melodramatic – hence the extraneous trimmings, I suppose.’ Perhaps significantly, the Doctor refers to Braxiatel as 'young Braxiatel,' suggesting that the Doctor is the elder brother. This sort of suggestion is present all through The Empire of Glass, which even suggests that the Doctor left Gallifrey before Braxiatel did, contradicting Tears of the Oracle.
At the end of Theatre of War, the Doctor realizes that Braxiatel out-manipulated him, so he promptly vanishes without saying hello to Braxiatel.
