| − | Around 750,000 BCE a civil war broke out between two dominant factions. [[Kronos]] and his brother [[Uranos]] came to blows. Uranos' faction lost and were exiled from Earth. These twenty-four Eternals conquered a small [[Kree]] outpost on the planet Uranus and claimed it for their own. They were preparing spaceship to return to Earth when the [[Kree]] sent a military vanguard and intercepted the Eternals. Four Eternals survived in hiding on Uranus, and seven survived the military encounter. These seven settled on the moon of [[Titan]] and developed it into a habitable colony.

| − | The remaining Eternals dwelt on Earth until the events of [[Ragnarok]]. Kronos had been communing with Atlantean scholars into the nature of the [[Power Cosmic]] prior to the invasion force. He was able to help Atlantis fend off the Celestial war host and preserve Earth. The unexpected arrival of [[C'thulu]] overwhelmed him and he was consumed by the power he was unprepared to channel. Kronos was transmuted into a free-energy being and became part of the [[ideologue|ideologuic]] manifestation of Time. Ripple effects of [[C'thulu]]'s arrival awoke an ancient primordial evil, the [[Dragon of the Moon]]. Violence broke out on Titan and another civil war broke out.

| − | After the events of Ragnarok, the Eternals established an outpost called [[Polaria]] and resumed diplomatic contact with their cousins on [[Titan]]. Eventually the largest body of Eternals relocated to that moon, using it as a platform for making contact with other alien races and dissuading any of them from tampering with Earth. Thanks to their advanced powers and technology they were able to maintain limited contact with the shattered realms on the branches of [[Yggdrasil]], and often stood in for the [[New Gods]] in order to maintain the spiritual ties of humanity and the realms of magic. Guided by [[Zuras]] as their Leader, the Eternals have kept their presence largely hidden from humanity.
