Arishem explains that, for millions of years, he has been planting the seeds of Celestials inside planets where the energy from large populations allow the Celestials to be born. Sersi contacts Arishem and learns that the mission of the Eternals was not to fight the Deviants but to prepare Earth for the "Emergence". Sersi is posthumously chosen by Ajak as her successor, granting her the ability to communicate with Arishem. Concerned that the Deviants have returned, the three Eternals travel to South Dakota to reunite with their leader, Ajak, only to find her dead. The trio are attacked by the Deviant Kro, with Ikaris arriving and chasing the creature away. After Sersi's partner Ikaris left her centuries earlier, she is now in a relationship with human Dane Whitman who works at the Natural History Museum. In the present day, Sersi and Sprite live together in London. Over the next five hundred years they mostly live apart, waiting for Arishem to tell them that they can leave. The last Deviants are apparently killed in 1521, when the group's opinions differ over their continued responsibilities and relationship with humankind.
