Eternity

Overview

Eternity is the brother of Infinity; together they share the responsibility of maintaining the balance between life and death, tranquility and entropy with Death and Oblivion. These four act as the cosmological compass of the universal axis. Eternity’s opposite is Death. Where Infinity represents all space within the universe, Eternity represents all time, although sometimes Eternity can take Infinity’s place in some cases.

The first human to contact Eternity was Dr. Strange when the villain Dormammu attempted to manifest in the earthly dimension. Later he was contacted by Galactus and the Watcher when Mr. Fantastic was put on trial. Later still he heeded his sister’s Infinity’s summons when Oblivion attempted to alter their previous deal through his Avatar, Maelstrom.

Shortly afterward he was summoned by Adam Warlock when the Thanos the Mad Titan had collected the six Infinity Gems. He battled with other cosmic deities against the might of Thanos. He was the last to take him on, but the Infinity Gauntlet proved too powerful and Thanos took over as all of reality. This is when he lost his concentration and lost the gauntlet. A trial was held by the Living Tribunal, and he and Eternity agreed that the Infinity Gauntlet was to powerful for anyone and created the Infinity Watch. Together, the gems had no power.

He and Infinity played a large role in the defeat of the Magus. He was placed in a catatonic state at the beginning of the Infinity War. Galactus pleaded with the Tribunal to repower the gems, but he reqired Eternity's decision. Galactus used Gamora to release him from this state and agreed to repower the gems. Unfortunately, the Magus obtained the gauntlet. But Magus was tricked and the gauntlet was incomplete, containing a fake reality gem. Eternity and Infinity combined and with the help of Adam Warlock, they defeated the Magus. When the event was over, he agreed that under no circumstances should the gems be used together ever again.

Once the powerful demon called Nightmare wanted to gain control over the universe by placing Eternity to sleep. Nightmare forces several people to sleep which made Eternity to be trapped in a dream state. Once in dream state, Nightmare entirely gainned control over Eternity and made Eternity to use its cosmic powers and seemigly destroyed Earth. Doctor Strange survived from Eternity's destruction of Earth and journeyed into Nightmare's realm in order to liberate Eternity from Nightmare's influence and control. Dr Strange frees Eternity and begs Eternity to recreate the destroyed Earth. Eternity agrees and brings Earth back again.
