Plot

Prelude
After receiving votes from the Uni-Mind after being revived, Thanos successfully takes over the title of Prime Eternal as he kills his uncle Zuras for revenge and murders Druig to prevent his memory of his weakness. Thanos requires the newly resurrected Druig's help by replacing his old body which The Machine won't allow him to resurrect. During his research with his parent and his Deviant heritage, Thanos visits his grand-uncle Uranos the Undying, who is imprisoned from the Exclusion and questions him about The Machine. Instead, Uranos tells Thanos and Druig his story about the Eternals' three moral principles: Protect Celestials, Protect the Machine, and Correct Excess Deviation. Millenia ago, Uranos argued with Kronos and Oceanus about the principles and decided that eradicating all Deviants and humans, and imprisoning Celestials would provide benefit for all Eternals, which his brothers opposed. His actions in committing genocide of Deviants caused a catastrophic civil war resulting in his 600,000 years imprisonment by his defeat along with Druig's betrayal. After Druig departs, Uranos secretly gives Thanos the imprint key, an armory that allows him to access Uranos' fail-safe into destroying the Machine. Ikaris, Thena, Sprite, Sersi, and Kingo are shocked to learn that the Machine not only resurrects the Eternals, but also consumes human life and felt distrustful of the Eternals' society. They also discovered that the Deviants of Lemuria were mutated uncontrollably from their unstable genes and the Eternals were forced to activate their Excess Deviation to kill them. After acknowledging Thanos' half-Deviant heritage, the Eternals decide to investigate why the Celestials created them. With Phastos captured by Thanos, the Eternals visit Ajak and Makkari in Celestia and plans to break into the Avengers headquarters and question the Celestial ghost known as the Progenitor. While Ikaris, Thena, Sprite, Sersi, and Kingo keep the Avengers occupied after the security breach, Makkari activates the Celestial's mind allowing Ajak to confront the Progenitor and questions the Deviants' creation. Ajak is despondent when she finds out that the Celestials created the Deviants as the result of the Progenitors' death releasing noxious Necrofluids that pollute Earth's environment. To prevent all Earth's lifeforms from extinction and Deviants' self-destruct mutation, the Celestials created the Eternals as their backup to prevent their extinction which allows the Deviants to adapt to the Necrofluid's toxicity resulting in stable lifeforms. Eternal scientist Domo confirms his results that his genes are elusively inconclusive despite his parents' heritage and Thanos realizes that his Eternal and Deviant genes are folly to him, in which the Machine does not recognize him as an Eternal. Thanos plans to activate the fail-safe causing the attention of all Eternals and convincing the Avengers to stop Thanos before it is too late. As Thanos overpowers the Eternals, Druig inadvertently activates Phastos' fail-safe on Thanos' armor for his betrayal, which causes Thanos to die from his mutation. With Thanos disposed of his position, the team decides to leave their Eternal society and support the Deviants in Lemuria to help stabilize their civilization. Druig, now the new Prime Eternal and hoping to unite the Eternals, asks The Machine for locations of excessive deviation. It highlights Lemuria and the island of Krakoa, the mutant nation. Millenia ago, Uranos and Druig invite Odin to exemplify their principle of Excess Deviation by eradicating mutations and deviancy, which Odin reluctantly tolerates their principles. In the present day, the Avengers fight off against the giant mutated Deviant allowing Ikaris and Sersi to activate their Excess deviation while Druig sets up the plan to infiltrate the mutant resurrection. Meanwhile, Mary Jane Watson gave the public astonishing news about her aunt's recovery from dementia thanks to the Krakoan medicine until she was kidnapped by Moira MacTaggert (who currently has an Omega Sentinel appearance), who was using her to infiltrate the Hellfire Gala for Orchis. Jack of Knives, one of the four Eternal crime lords, sneaks into Krakoa and discovers the Mutant Resurrection Protocols after witnessing the rebirth of Cyclops. They report it back to Druig, who considers the Mutants of Krakoa to be undergoing excessive deviation because of their immortality. Meanwhile, on Krakoa, Destiny foresees the upcoming war between the Avengers, X-Men, and Eternals clashing with each other and informs the Quiet Council to defend their immortality. After discovering the identity of Doctor Stasis, Cyclops confesses to the Daily Bugle news reporter Ben Urich about the Mutant Resurrection Protocol believing it might prevent Orchis' plan on inciting tensions and public backlashes while Emma Frost reveals the truth to Scott about Moira's motives and betrayal. After successfully infiltrating the Hellfire Gala following public news of the Mutant resurrection, Moira meets up with Druig and Jack of Knives and informs them to kill five Mutants who are responsible for resurrecting mutants. Emma Frost informs the Quiet Council about Doctor Stasis who is revealed to be Mister Sinister's clone claiming to be the real Sinister. This forces Nathaniel Essex to flee much to his confusion while foreshadowing the event that might happen. The Earth (dubbed as The Machine by Eternals) narrates that it is doing fine as humans haven't been disintegrated yet and that the Avengers and the X-Men have some time off due to a lack of villain attacks as it starts to narrate the following information. On Olympia, Druig speaks with Domo on how to eradicate all mutants. Domo has created an anti-matter bomb of prodigious size which they can drop into a node on Krakoa before activating. On Lemuria, Ikaris is doing some work there and gets attacked by a female deviant mutate named Crimson Karlau. Refusing to kill her, he and Sersi managed to contain her. In the Exclusion, the imprisoned Phastos is visited by Druig who notes that his fellow Eternals are hiding in Lemuria. Druig brings in Ajak and Makkari to help with the mind-wiping as Phastos tells them not to comply with Druig. In Celestia, Phastos is shown by Ajak and Makkari that they are making a god. He also mentions how he tried to stop Project Machine which would end the deaths of mankind. After Phastos leaves, Ajak tells Makkari that they are lucky that they didn't introduce their guest, an imprisoned Mister Sinister. As Phastos arrives in Lemuria, Thena speaks to Kro about Phastos' actions and the previous actions of Thanos when Makkari arrives stating that the Eternals have secured plans for the Deviants. Druig checks in with Domo on the finishing touches of the anti-matter bomb. Before Druig can take Domo to a diner in Vancouver, Druig was attacked by something unseen as a voice says "Protect The Machine". The anti-matter bomb activates and starts to go to an undersea location only for Domo to deactivate it. When Druig wonders what happened, Domo states that Krakoa is a sentient being and that it is a part of The Machine. Domo tells Druig that he will think of another method only for Druig to turn down his suggestion. Wanting another way to commit genocide and knowing of an expert on that, Druig goes to the Exclusion to give Uranos a proposition. Uranos quotes "Oh Druig, little Druig. Not even a thousand years on the throne and already so desperate". Plot
An unknown figure narrates how it is of such power to speak to the reader. In New York, Sersi is talking with Tony Stark about a fight that is going to be happening in a day or two where she complains that the X-Men are doing the revivals that the Eternals mostly do. Suddenly, Sersi gets ambushed by Echo's Phoenix form as Captain Marvel and Thor bring her in. The attack was seen from the treehouse by Cyclops and Jean Grey. As people protest about the X-Men being life-hoarders, Cyclops states to Jean Grey that they can't bring back non-mutants. On Krakoa, Nightcrawler and Mystique speak with Destiny to confirm her prediction of an upcoming war. Destiny seeing the Eternals in her vision, she advises them to gather the Quiet Council. Arriving on Arrako, Nightcrawler meets up with Cable, Magneto, and Storm to inform them about Destiny's latest vision and warn the Arakkis about the threat. At Avengers Mountain, Sersi regains consciousness as Iron Man interrogates her in Avengers Mountain's psychic dead room. Iron Man mentions that a few months ago some Eternals snuck into Avengers Mountain to do some cosmic stuff and he finds out that Thanos led the Eternals recently. While Sersi regretted that Thanos led them, Iron Man figured out that the Eternals had another doomsday device. Captain America then comes in to take part in the interrogation reminding Iron Man that Sersi was once an Avenger at some point and that the team should show her some trust. He wants to know why the Eternals are going to war with the mutants. She asks what they know about what Druig is going to do. Iron Man mentioned a huge spike in the Pacific Ocean as Sersi states that she had no involvement in what happened there and is not the Eternal that they should be worrying about. One hour earlier on Olympia, Druig discusses with the Eternal council and figures out that the X-Gene came from the Deviants and not the humans as he tries to get the Uni-Mind to bring fire and death to those that need to be corrected, which the Eternals society all agreed. At the Exclusion, Druig speaks to his grandfather Uranos about what he had told the Uni-Mind about his speech and is planning to have him released as a test. Uranos states that Druig "will see what Uranos the Undying can do with an hour". At the Damocles Foundation's corporate HQ in Los Angeles, Moira hears from Druig about Thanos meeting Uranos and his plan on assassinating the Five. At Krakoa, the Quiet Council is informed about Destiny's vision and the Eternals' upcoming war. During this meeting, Professor X, Hope Summers, and other mutant telepaths are psychically attacked by the Uni-Mind which allows the Eternal fleets to assault the Krakoans which was part of their distraction. This enables Jack of Knives to lead an attack on Krakoa as Wolverine gives the order to sound the alarm. The X-Men joins the others in the assault. At the Great Ring, Nightcrawler gets a warning out to the Arraki. Wolverine finds that Egg has been taken down by Jack of Knives as Wolverine orders Jean Grey to have the Five secured as the Eternal fleets suddenly retreat. When Moira states to Jack of Knives blew his chance, Druig states that the "Eternals are eternal" and he also informs Moira that Arakko has already been taken care of, despite his failed attempt. As the X-Men work to revive their fallen comrades, Nightcrawler explains to them what happened to Arrako as Uranos was shown to have decimated Arakko's homeworld and massacred a few of Arakki's mutant lives, which includes destabilizing all Krakoan gates. He returns to the Exclusion to inform Druig that he completed his hour while hearing about the Eternals' mission. At Avengers Mountain, Captain America, Iron Man, and Sersi hear about what happened on Krakoa. Druig broadcasts himself to the people of Earth on their high-tech devices stating that the Eternals will help them deal with the "mutant threat" while advising them not to be afraid of the towering death machines that have emerged off the western seaboard of the United States which he describes as the Hex which are giant-sized Eternals consisting of Phebe Reginax, Rheaka Centaurus, Syne the Memotaur, Thieaka the Harpiscus, Tetytrona 3000, and the Themex. In retaliation, Captain America assembles the Avengers. As Captain Marvel states that Sersi is locked up, Captain America states that she has no involvement with Druig as Iron Man is informed of an intruder alert. Iron Man flies to the location to find Ajak, Makkari, and a bound Mister Sinister where Ajak wants Iron Man's help to build a god to end the upcoming war. When Iron Man asks how they are going to make a god in a few hours, Ajak states that they have everything they need around them as it shows the outside of Avengers Mountain. The unseen figure narrates that they will find out who this hero is in one way or another. As Druig's declaration of war is echoed across the world, we see different people at the time of this as the narrator describes them. In London, a man named Tom is getting ready to go to sleep. In Vancouver, a woman named Katrina fires out a supportive tweet at a coffeehouse, hoping that the retweets would be a shield above Krakoa. In Mumbai, an old man named Arjun lies in his bed and shrugs off the Hex. In São Paulo, a woman named Daniela is riding her bicycle knowing the pros and cons of being a mutant. In New York, a woman named Jada notes that people wanting genocide on the mutants are not her people. In Yokohama, Kenta sees his parents worrying about a tidal wave hitting them. The narrator states that these people are important. On Krakoa, Syne the Memotaur fights Exodus and Jean Grey and Exodus gets Syne the Memotaur off of Krakoa. Cyclops is fighting Rheaka Centaurus as he notes to Jean Grey that he generates his attack fauna. In the nick of time, the Avengers show up to help fight the Hex. Back at Avengers Mountain, Iron Man, Ajak, and Makkari work to regenerate their base where Iron Man states that Mister Fantastic is going to be as green as Hulk when it happens. A captive Mister Sinister claims that Ajak and Makkari kidnapped him because they feel he is responsible. Back on Krakoa, Captain America and Cyclops go over the objectives that involve getting the non-combative mutants to the safety of the Vaults and making sure the Five aren't harmed. Cyclops tells Captain America to handle the Hex while the X-Men handle keeping the Five safe. Captain Marvel leads Echo, Star Brand, Thor, Storm, and others into battling Thieaka the Harpsicus and Syne the Memotaur as Captain Marvel notes that something that big can't be intangible all the time. The resulting battle formed a tsunami that is en route to the Philippines, New Guinea, and the eastern coasts of the United States. As Mystique shoots at Themex, Nightcrawler rants that this is unfair as Destiny notes that they stand alone. The narrator notes how Iron Man and Ajak have found the thumbprint of Arishem the Judge, Mister Sinister and his clones found a fragment of the Dreaming Celestial, Makkari obtained the fragments of the Destroyer, Sersi gathering the Eternals who oppose Druig's decision, and Tony Stark will pilot Avengers Mountain like he did when a king wreathed in black attacked Earth. Phebe Reginax appears on Krakoa to aid Syne the Memotaur by healing her. Exodus sacrifices his life to take down Syne the Memotaur. The Five are heavily guarded as they bring back Exodus and the other fallen mutants. In another location, Syne the Memotaur is revived. Meanwhile, Tom is watching the news of the conflict on Krakoa, Katrina is still tweeting, Arjun dies on the street as a side effect of the Machine resurrecting Syne the Memotaur, Daniela comforts a customer at her third job as a tremor hits, Jada still doesn't want any Eternal-based protests against mutants, and Kenta gets a blurred shot at a tidal wave being punched by Captain Marvel. Phastos puts in the last of the demiurgic conductors. Mister Sinister breaks up an argument between Iron Man and Ajak so that they can prevent the mutants from being slaughtered. While slaying Rheaka Centaurus' attack fauna, Jean Grey gets a status report from Cyclops that the vaults are secured and the X-Men have breached the Eternal armories to cut the Hex's power supply. Nightcrawler notes that Syne the Memotaur has returned to bring Krakoa down. This causes everybody to work to take down Syne the Memotaur as there is not enough time to evacuate everyone. As Avengers Mountain comes to life as the Progenitor, who is revealed to be the narrator as it commands the Hex to leave. The Hex complies with their principles and takes their leave from Krakoa. Despite the heroes' success in banishing the Hex, the Progenitor regained consciousness and declared their Judgement Day after showing its disappointment with the people of Earth for their unrelenting cruelty and unreasonable bickering. The Progenitor addresses the people of Earth stating that they will be judged within the next 24 hours to justify themselves individually and collectively. If there is more than wicked, they will live. Otherwise, there will be no tomorrow. The Progenitor concludes that the people of Earth are all important. As the Progenitor continues its narration, Ajax assumes that what the Progenitor has decreed must be a test. The Progenitor judges Captain America and deems him a failure for each day in North America is worse. In London, Tom is listening to Captain America's podcast in a pub. In Vancouver, Katrina missed Captain America's broadcast and catches the highlights later. In Mumbai, Arjun's widow Komali sees Arjun's body and says negative comments about the Progenitor. In São Paulo, Daniella has a moment of empathy as her mother messages her to get home. In New York, Jada is on her couch watching the news as she acts sincere towards it. In Yokohama, Kenta tries to come up with an excuse to avoid homework as his father claims that he might be judged on how he does it. In The Exclusion, Uranos speaks with Druig about the Progenitor's decree as he mentioned to have sent Jack of Knives to observe the Avengers. Uranos states that both of them have failed to justify themselves as Druig gives the order to prepare the Hex for the second attack. Iron Man discusses a plan with the Avengers, Ajax's group of Eternals, and Mister Sinister on any plans to disable the Progenitor by taking out the internal node as Phastos claims that it would be a big risk while Mister Sinister asks Destiny if she can hear him. On Krakoa, Professor X falls to an attack as Emma Frost informs the Five to revive him. Destiny calls a meeting with the Quiet Council of Krakoa where she informs them that Mister Sinister has discovered a weakness on the Progenitor that must be hit. Destiny, Sebastian Shaw, Exodus, Mystique, and Hope Summers are for it while Emma Frost abstains. The X-Men are surprised when Kro shows up with Ransak the Reject and other Deviants stating that they are with them as they share the same genes enough to pass through the Krakoan gates. Back at the Progenitor, Ajak finds that infiltrators have breached the divine boundary as Mister Sinister claims that billions won't die. As the Eternals principles of Protecting Celestials are activated, Wolverine and Jean Grey arrive with some mutants to target the internal node. When Jean Grey attacks the internal node despite Iron Man's attempt to stop her, everyone ends up in the Progenitor's mind as it made everyone taste the experience of annihilation. The Progenitor then demands that the people of Earth justifies themselves as they thought they their heroes were "gods above judgment". It passes negative judgment for Emma Frost, Mystique, and Destiny, gave Kro a positive judgment, and considers the others longer. As Ajak is prevented from attacking Mister Sinister, Iron Man states that now have no choice as Phastos states that they will have to do things that will enable them to get a positive judgment from the Progenitor by pulling the whole world together. At the Exclusion, Jack of Knives is persuaded by Sersi to release Starfox from his cell. The Progenitor narrates that Captain America is trying to end the riots near one of the Krakoan areas in New York as he claims that they will get through this. He gets attacked by the rioters. At Avengers Mountain, Sersi speaks with Starfox about using his emotion-manipulation abilities to help get positive judgments upon connecting to the Machine. He is reluctant to do as they would get negative judgment from the Progenitor. In London, Tom is given negative judgment after an encounter with two other angry men. Mayor Luke Cage is visited by the Progenitor using the illusion of a man from the press when asked how he judges his performance. He quotes "Ask me tomorrow" and heads out into the streets causing him to receive negative judgment by default. The Progenitor observes Thor fighting Themex in Earth's orbit and claims that he must be worthy. Eros meets with mutants and talks philosophy with them. The Progenitor appears in the form of Captain Marvel before Ms. Marvel giving her and her family the opportunity to leave Earth. She attacks the fake and asks what she did with the real Carol as it vanishes upon receiving positive judgment. In Vancouver, Katrina heads to a rally when she sees the Progenitor in the form of her dead aunt as she is horrified to see her with her thumbs down. The Progenitor appears in the form of Legion to speak to a revived Professor X who is busy and passes negative judgment which he does not notice. In Mumbai, the Progenitor appears at the foot of Kamali's bed and watches her weep as the Progenitor questions itself. Eros speaks with Black Panther and other known rulers on what they wish to talk about. Starbrand fights an aspect of a dungeon god and receives positive judgment. In São Paulo, Daniella watches little of Captain America's footage and has a moment of awful understandings of how bad this is as she receives positive judgment while on her way to her mom's house. The Progenitor appears before Doctor Doom and asks him to say that Reed Richards is smarter than him. He just laughs about and leaves as the Progenitor gives him positive judgment. In New York, Jada watches the crowd chanting "death to the mutants" while she quotes "death to ourselves" from within as she receives positive judgment. Daredevil sees the Progenitor in a vision of Jesus with a crown of thorns and a down-turned thumb as the Progenitor claims that Daredevil is weeping under his mask. Eros is shown at the White House as he listens with empathy while judging himself as a failure. Miles Morales sees the Progenitor in the form of Spider-Man giving him a thumbs up as Miles gives him a thumbs up back. In Yokohama, Kenta is still not doing his homework causing the Progenitor to withhold judgment. Starfox speaks before the United Nations asking them to let the Mutants and the Eternals help the world. As he leaves the stage, he is approached by Sebastian Shaw who asks if he speaks for the Eternals. Back at Avengers Mountain, Iron Man, Starfox, and Sersi talk about what to do with Druig as Ajak states that their best shot is to continue communing with the Progenitor as they find out what Uranos did on Arakko. As the Uni-Mind had made Druig a compromise candidate, Sersi hopes that Druig will make a mistake that they can use before he makes the mistake where nobody survives. As Druig states that they can bring even the Hex into the Uni-Mind to unleash its war form, Uranos states he is still waiting to be released as Druig declines. He orders the Eternals to unleash the Uni-Mind. The X-Men witness its arrival as the Eternals arrive to merge with the Uni-Mind. They confront Druig there. Deep inside the Machine, Ikaris and Gilgamesh disable the Uni-Mind's firewalls allowing the Eternals to bring X-Men telepaths into the Uni-Mind as Sersi leads the people into voting for Starfox. Uranos manipulates Druig realizing that he has no other choice but to order the Machine to release Uranos. Uranos is unleashed on Olympia as the Eternals confront him with Starfox now called the Prime Eternal. Just then, portals open up from Uranos' armories around the world ranging from drones in France, incandescent beams from a dead sun in Australia, and Druig is grabbed by Exodus where he admits that he made a mistake. Ikaris and Gilgamesh are trapped inside the Machine that Uranos has sealed as Uranos has defeated them. Iron Man enlists Magneto and Storm to activate one of the portals to Uranos' armory. Once that was done, Magneto and Storm confront Uranos buying Iron Man time to hack into the portals enabling one of the armories to weaken Uranos. As Magneto starts dying in Storm's arms as he gets a glimpse of the Progenitor, Ikaris mentions that Uranos is back in his cell telekinetically reassembling himself. The Progenitor then judges Ikaris and Sersi where he gives positive judgment to Ikaris and negative judgment to Sersi. Starfox then persuade the Progenitor as he states that the world is still trying to fight its problems while planning for peace in the future like the mutants making Mars habitable. The Progenitor makes the final judgment as it unleashes a beam that starts to kill the rioters that Captain America was dealing with, Captain America quotes "We're going to die". The Progenitor has begun its sentencing. In London, Tom is confronted by his son who decides to tell him who he is. In Vancouver, Katrina thinks of her own judgment and heads out into the burning streets. In Mumbai, Komali waits. In São Paulo, Daniela is by her mother's side. In New York, Jada sees a field of bones and a man with a flag. In Yokohama, Kenta realizes what is happening is real and is consoled by his parents. Back in New York, Jada finds Captain America as they talk about their respectful failures. Nightcrawler appears stating that they need Captain America to give the "false god" a piece of his mind. Upon being teleported to the Progenitor by Nightcrawler, Captain America has a word with Progenitor and how the Avengers have fought for justice. The Progenitor reduces Captain America and Nightcrawler to bones. With Nightcrawler is reborn on Krakoa, Jean Grey states that the Worlds' anger is directed. Professor X speaks with Bishop, Cyclops, Iron Man, Jean Grey, Sersi, and Starfox on the next approach. When everyone suggests that they risk going for the node, Destiny states that there is their only chance "with certain modifications". The Avengers, the X-Men, the Eternals and the military then attack the Progenitor where the military and the Hex provides the distraction, Emma Frost pilots Phebe Reginax, and the Stepford Cuckoos pilot each of the Hex. The Progenitor manages to defeat many of his opponents by massacring them forcing others to retreat. The Progenitor then causes destruction around the world and even manages to preventing a shuttle from retreatment. Iron Man and the survivors work on coming up with a new plan as the Progenitor is integrating itself with the Machine as they managed to revive Cyclops, Jean Grey, and Wolverine. As the team sneak into the Progenitor, Jack of Knives provides a distraction by taking a hit from the Progenitor. As the others prepare one more egg, they are caught by surprise when Captain America comes out of it. During the end of the world, Jada is rescued by Captain America and taken to where everyone on Earth is being kept safe as the Progenitor narrates that it isn't over yet. In London, Tom perishes in the fire upon being distrusting of the portal in the street. In Vancouver, Katrina goes to comfort a woman in a burning building as the fire reaches them. In Mumbai, Komali thinks of Arjun. In São Paulo, Daniella drags her mother into the portal. Jada meets Kenta who states that he doesn't know where his parents are. The Progenitor narrates that the Machine is resisting its attacks. Nightcrawler informs Starfox that Phastos' resetting of the Machine has given them some time as his A.I. colleagues are working to keep the Machine from self-destructing. Captain America states that they should change tactics. The Progenitor narrates that he has part of Tony Stark in him as he opens part of the Earth in order to get to the Reality Loom. Captain America and Nightcrawler note that when the Reality Loom goes, so does Earth. Inside the Progenitor, Iron Man, Jean Grey, Mister Sinister, Wolverine, Ajak, Sersi, and Makkari fight their way past the Celestial Antibodies as they reach the core. As Jean Grey makes her move on destroying the core, Ajak stopped her. Starfox gives the orders to get control of the Armories of Uranos as the Progenitor arrives at Olympia. Everyone is given different weapons as they try to hold off the Progenitor. Captain America tries one more time to get the Progenitor to surrender. The half-recreated Syne the Memotaur with Exodus' support arrives and lunges towards the Progenitor. Ajak explains that if the mutants are revived, a lot of humans won't be. The Progenitor narrates where it sees that Orchis is helping out after having originally helped the Eternals start a war with the mutants. The Progenitor's core personality then attacks them stating that they have failed its tests. Sersi has the Machine broadcast her message stating that the revival of an Eternal will cost the life of a human, much to everyone's horror. Starfox confirms Sersi's speech to Captain America and Nightcrawler. As Sersi attempted to persuade the Progenitor's core personality, it vanquishes Sersi believing that the truth won't save humanity due to their resentful backlash towards her but Iron Man states it that humanity can change similar to the Eternals. Ajak claims that this is also a test for the Progenitor. Having shown sympathy to Progenitor's anguish and despair, Jean Grey even mentions what had happened to her when the Dark Phoenix decimated the D'Bari's homeworld affected her while Iron Man has worked to make amends to deal with his consequence and learned his virtue of heroism. After being told that it's not a god, the Progenitor's core personality confesses that he had given up on saving humanity and asks Ajak if it was. Ajak shamefully gives it a thumbs down for disapproval and it asks her to be better. This causes the Progenitor to shut down and entire Earth restored. With Sersi confirmed dead, Iron Man, Jean Grey, Mister Sinister, and Makkari find that Ajak has been transformed into a new Eternal merged with Celestial body renamed herself as Ajak Celestia as she plans to make herself worthy to the Eternals and act as their new god.

Starfox makes Zuras the Prime Eternal again and has him apologize on TV to the X-Men about the war the Eternals did on the mutants. As an act of reparation, the X-Men will make use of Uranos for an hour to do with what they will. Druig is incarcerated where he finds that Uranos is his cellmate as he states that he will show him something that can be done in the next thousand years. Zuras states to Storm that he has more conservative interpretation on mutants than Druig and he won't have the Eternals go to war with them again as they share the same DNA type with both Deviants and humans alike. With Sersi exposing the Eternals' resurrection to the public, Starfox was surprised to face public backlash against Eternals while Nightcrawler assures that he will endure it. Jean Grey watches a commercial that she films stating that it will take time to revive the mutants that were killed and will also aid some nations. The Phoenix Foundation is established as a body independent from Krakoa and will experiment in reviving non-mutants as seen when a kid emerges from an egg in front of his parents. Cyclops states to Jean Grey that this is a win for the X-Men and wish it wasn't the win for Orchis. At the Progenitor's dormant body, the Avengers get used to living in their base again with Iron Man and Captain America discusses their aftermath from their Judgement. Captain America meets up with Jada where he had owed her coffee and confirmed that the world isn't perfect as much as they expected.

Subplots

Immortal X-Men
There is a flashback to Exodus' early life. In the present, the Quiet Council of Krakoa discuss as Destiny states that Professor X is about to share some new information he learned from Forge. he learned from Forge that Celestial energy was detected and that Mister Sinister was abducted by some Eternals as Exodus assumes that he was "rescued". As Emma Frost plans to brief the captains to go on the defensive, Sebastian Shaw suggests that they go on the offensive. Exodus brings up a much earlier encounter with the Eternals due to his immortality. He recounts his encounter with Apocalypse in Ancient Egypt, his life during Medieval England where he encountered the Black Knight of that time, and his long sleep until Magneto found him.
