Thanos
is in prehistoric Vanaheim, trapped there for years and knowing that his goal
has arrived: that night Bor will create the Black Stone….
Now:
Valkyrie (Jane Foster) sees the souls of the dead being burned to provide fuel
for Doctor Doom’s mad scheme. She summons Mister Horse, asking him to bring
Runa. As Doom studies his spell, Hela rebukes him for his crimes….
Thor
is facing a band of ordinary Latverians, armed with guns to stop Thor and
directed by a Doombot. The Thunder God spins Mjolnir, deflecting the bullets to
shoot down the Doombot as another takes its place. This Doombot commands the
Latverians to jump off the cliff, challenging Thor to save them….
Ancient
past: Thanos fights Bor’s army while Bor commands the souls to be burnt to fuel
his plans….
Thor
heads into the castle and attacks Doom who dashes through a portal and Hela
tells Thor to let him go and end the spell. Thor takes up the magic book where
Doom left it, reenacting the ritual he saw on the cave wall. Thor feels their
devotion and obedience and is tempted to keep them under control as his
worshippers but he fights off that urge and sets them free. Hela goes to tend to
the dead, warning him that some things are inevitable….
Ancient
past: The ritual is completed and the furnace of the dead is ignited. The
mountain explodes and Thanos enters the furnace room, seeing, in place of the
Black Stone, a child being formed….
