Plot Of Eternals

Around 5000 BC ten Immortal groups of people were sent to the earth from the planet Olympia using their Domo. They have been sent to Earth to save mankind from deviants who are growing from time to time. They have come to earth by the order of their Prime Celestial , Arishem the Judge. Throughout the time they relocated human civilization and protected them from deviants although they were instructed not to interfere in any of their internal Affairs like fight , war , etc and to let them develop naturally. Two eternal names as Sersi and Ikaris developed a relationship among them throughout the centuries and with passage of time they became a married couple.

Spanish Invasion in the year 1521 BC on the Aztec capital of Tenochitian runs with the ending of the last Deviants. While they were fighting against the Deviants, Thena’s Mahd Wyyr led her to fight with her own allies instead of fighting with the deviants. To cure her Ajak after consulting with his prime celestial she offered her to go back to home so that she could be cured but Gilgamesh requested not to send her and he will take care of her to which its consequence might have to kill her. The Druid was not happy about what was happening with mankind. Because of getting so much higher technical weapons, guns they are fighting against each other so he took control of most of the desert people and took along with him to create a new settlement in between the Amazon Jungles. Ikaris told all the Eternals to go wherever they want and settle their life in whatever they want until their time comes for their return to Olympia.

Years have passed and in the present time in London Sprite is living with Sersi who works in a museum as a teacher along with her colleague named Whitman. One night Sprite along with both of them returning from the party and just arriving beside a lake where they were attacked by a Deviant. They fight with it but in the due course of time they discover that the deviant can heal himself. Ikaris joined them and fought along with them but somehow the Deviant managed to escape from there. Whitman was left behind by Sersi , Ikaris and Sprite went to South Dakota to find Ajak. When they entered her house they found her body who was earlier attacked by a Deviant. When Sersi was crying in front of Ajak she gave her the sphere which she used to communicate with their prime celestial. With the threat of the new Deviants they decided to go out and find other Eternals who are spreaded all over the world.

Next they went to Kingo who had not become a Bollywood actor and was busy shooting a new Bollywood movie and was not interested in returning back to his Eternals live leaving his stardom behind. But he gets encouraged to rejoin after hearing the death news of Ajak and also was influenced by his Valet KArun Patel who also went with them to shoot a documentary of him. Next they went in search of Thena and Gilgamesh both were found in Australia. Where they found Thena was again out of control because of the attack of the new Deviants. After looking at the painting that was done by Thena when gets out of control she the pictures consist of Planetary destruction. After looking at the pictures she tried to communicate with their prime celestial named Arishem. He told Sersi about the truth that there is no planet named as Olympia. These eternals are made by him in world Forge in order to defeat the Deviants. He also told that the Deviants are also made by him to maintain the balance of planet by due to the passage of time they evolved themselves and became more powerful so to stop them he created Eternals who will help to defeat the Deviants and learning from his Past mistake the Prime Celestial had made them in such a way that the Eternals cannot evolve themselves and will remain same throughout the time. Now he told her about his motive to make them. Every planet was created along with a Celestial seed planted in the core of the Planet which needs time to grow like around thousand years and eternals job is to let the Celestial grow but this will result in the destruction of the planet along with mankind. After listening to this, Sersi went against the celestials because after spending so many years on the earth they are internally connected with humanity and now do not want them to die.

They decided to create delay for the emergence of the celestial and went to Amazon in search of a Druid who can help them to teleport the celestial seed. At night when all the people were asleep they were ambushed by a Deviant. Ikaris and Sersi were brutally attacked but somehow Sersi managed to make a Deviant into Tree to which every one was surprised at how that happened. On the other hand Thena was getting insane again and was getting attacked by a deviant to save Thena Gilgamesh came in front of Thana and the Deviant attacked him suck up all his power along with his Memories and the deviant got a Humanoid figure along with Intelligible language.

Before going to Chicago they were sad after the death of Gilgamesh but the good part is now she can control her over her possession. Everyone was crying when his body was burned Thena spread his ashes over the water. Druid told Sersi that he was not powerful enough to stop the emergence of the celestial and told that everyone should go to chicago in search of Phastos who is an inbuilt engineer and one of the Eternals who can help them with his technologies and weapons. Because his technology is used to create mankind and he also feels sad that because of him the whole Hiroshima went into ashes. But then he renounced his life after meeting with his husband and his new son. At the beginning he refused to leave his family but when Ben convinced him to fight for his son’s future he agreed to fight again as an Eternal.

When they went to stop the emergence Ikaris was the one who want to stop them because from the beginning he knew about the celestial seed and also want to emergence as he think that this a life cycle thus this lead to fight among them only all the eternal fight against Ikaris but he was very powerful. But from nowhere A deviant came who took the power of Gilgamesh and started fighting with Ikaris. Thena wants to take revenge from the Deviant so she kills her into pieces then she helps other Eternals to stop Ikaris so that Sersi could stop the emergence. Phastos created a weapon using the sphere which will help to gather all the power of Eternals to stop the Emergence.

 End Credit Explanation

At the end of the movie in the post credit scene we could see Whitman went to the museum and opened a box which contained a sword that his ancestor used by that time the guard caught him. The Eternals were spreaded all over the world but suddenly Ero arose as Thanos Brother caught all his allies and told them that he knows where to find their allies. As they have stopped the Emergence their justice will be based on their memories that eros will decide.
