Eli and his cousins appear in the home of his father, Druig of Nightmares, moments after their gathering on Titan. They quartet find Druig in a roundtable meeting with other luminaries of the Eternals, engaged in some manner of heated debate.
"Father, I have returned. I have brought aid with me, as you asked." Eli says, gesturing to his cousins.
"You finally grace us with your presence, Eliosha." Druig says, his tone less than warm and inviting. "But I do not understand what you mean by 'as I asked'. I have not asked you to bring anything, or anyone, to me. I have left you to your aimless wandering among the human rabble. Tell me, have you learned anything worth reporting?"
Eli seemed stricken for a moment, before speaking. "Father, you asked me to return home with aid for--"
Druig raised a hand to silence him. "I asked for no such thing, boy. If I wanted help from outside Polaria, I have <i>capable</i> messengers to send. Why have you interrupted us now?" Druig said, his tone annoyed.
"Father, I've...we have come to tell you that Olympia has fallen to the Deviants. Polaria could be next." Eli finishes, suddenly looking as though he wishes to be anywhere but here.
