Witness now, what may happen soon!!
Kro and his Deviants flee in their vessel from the destruction levied on the Incan chamber with the landing of the enormous Celestial spaceship. Ikaris opens a resurrection chamber and is pleased when Ajak, a fellow Eternal, emerges. With the ability to communicate with the gods, Ajak calls to them, announcing they are ready to learn the gods new plan. Pylons rise up and a gigantic figure lowers itself to stand atop them. It is the Celestial Arishem, leader of the Fourth Host, and judge, and he is to remain there for fifty years, at which time he will decide whether Earth lives or dies.

Watcher [Uatu]; Eternals [Alars; Chronos; Zuras]
Witness, if you will, this scene from remotest prehistory...
Sometimes, the Watcher tells stories from Earth's past, and not only imaginary stories. This time, he tells the story of the Eternals, a race of humans that were genetically modified by aliens to become almost godlike. When their city Titanos is destroyed, brothers Zuras and Alars learn that their father Chronos' experiments have made all Eternals immortal. The experiment has also granted the Eternals the ability to form a single collective mind, the Uni-Brain. Joined together, the Eternals decide that Zuras should be their new ruler, and Alars departs to seek his own destiny.
