Chronos' experiments to uncover the secret to conquer death result in a disaster that destroys the city of Titanos while turning Chronos into a being one with the universe and bestowing eternal life to the city's residents. In his new form, Chronos has just enough time to explain and say goodbye to his sons before joining the cosmos. Zuras and A'Lars then call the other Eternals to assembly to discuss who should succeed Chronos as ruler. While engaging in the ritual circle-flight before the meeting, the Eternals discover they now have the ability to merge into a single being -- the Uni-Mind. After separating from each-other, A'Lars sees that Zuras is the favored leader of the Olympian Eternals, and departs for the stars so that they can avoid further civil conflict in accordance with Chronos' wishes.
