On Earth, another long frozen Deviant, Ghaur appears with a brilliant intelligence and a master plan and young adult Sprite and new Black Knight Dane Whitman must respond. Meanwhile, on station factory Olympia three Eternals: Sersi, Kingo and Phastos stand as evidence humanity's success and failures, as Arishem accuses and a being called the Living Tribunal appears to judge while Ashema, the Listening Celestial takes on a humanoid form to help them defend their chosen people. Meanwhile, Thena, Makkari, Druig, and Eros journey to New Olympia, a testing center and meet Zarda and attempt to free these Eternals and make them self aware. They arrive at the trial just in time to stall it with the new evidence, the ability of Eternals to grow/evolve.
This creates a universe crossing adventure which sees the destruction of New Olympia, the rise of the premature hungering Celestial Galactus and a showdown with the forces of the cosmos and a grand revelation that will shake the foundations of the universe!
