Perseus POV -
It's been more then two centuries since I met them. Last time was the when father sent me here to deal with the Ice Giants and the Fire Giants. At that time they were also there and they helped in protecting the humans. Although if I do remember I threatened them before leaving. Well they would have forgotten about it.
Right now I am here because what has happened just a few hours ago. Some time ago deviant attacked this place. They also tried to kill humans but luckily Eternals were here or maybe they attacked Eternals and human are just collateral damages but whatever in the end Eternals defeated them and kiled them but at the end of the battle Thena have some kind of mental illness and she started attacking her own people.
She also tried to kill Gilgamish the one she loves. And it took a lot of effort of Eternals to stop her without hurting her but in the end with the combine effort of all the other Eternals they were finally able to stop her and bring her back.
Right now they all are inside where Ajak is looking after Thena, she is trying to find the root of her problem and try to fix it. If I remember correctly then they will come to the conclusion that she is suffering from a mental disease which they will call Mahd Wy'r.
Madness of memory or something like it. They will think that all the battles and long life are what is causing her this illness and they will think that by erasing her memories they can cure her diseases. But they can not be further from the truth.
Actually it is not an illness but the memories of her life. It is the memories that have been sealed and now are coming out. The memories of different missions they have performed on other planets they were sent to protect by there bosses.
And I can see that Ajak started to find the problem of Thena so I silently teleported inside the temple and stood in a corner no one is looking. And they can not even sense me, even though they are Eternals and have almost infinite cosmic energy but they will still not sense me.
They will never know I am here if they will not look at me and the reason is Alejandro. Yes Alejandro the very Mutant that have caused Selina so much trouble. It is almost impossible to find him. His Mutants ability is quite useful.
His ability is shield. He can shield himself from almost anything and that is the reason that even Selina can not find him even with the help of all the telepaths she has under her. And that is the reason they can not sense him.
It did not take long for Ajak to speak. She said,'' I can not find the true cause of her problem but if I am right then I think she is suffering from the overload of all the memories of her life. That is why she keeps having these visions.''
Makari spoke,'' If what you are saying is truth then all of us should have this problem. I mean we all are alive from the same time. ''
Ajak replied patiently, '' Like I said I can not figure out the exact reason of her condition. I am just speculating from all the things she told me. She said she is having visions of different things like talking to the other peoples, visions of wars and many other. I am just as unsure of it's reason as you are.''
Gilgamish who was closest to Thena asked,'' Is there a way that this condition can be treated? There has to be a way. Please tell me I can do anything for her.''
Ikaris said,'' Yes Ajak tell us if there is anything dangerous then we will do it. Just tell us.''
Ajak was silent for some time and then she let out a sigh of resignation and then said,'' I do have a way, and it is not anything difficult for us but it can be quite difficult for Thena. It will be like having a second birth.''
Thena who has woken up for sometime said,'' And What js the way you are talking about? The way that will make me feel like a second birth, come on tell me?''
Ajak looked all round and she found out that all the Eternal were curious so she said,'' I think If we remove the memories of Thena then there will be no problems of regarding her memories and she can be fine.''
Every Eternal was quite surprised after hearing this. Now they understand as to why Ajak said this will be like a second birth. After removing her memories she will be just like a child. A clean slate. Everyone knew that this is the decision of Thena so they all looked towards her.
Before Thena can speak, Gilgamish asked,'' If she will remove her memories then she will forget me and everyone else in this room? Won't she?''
Ajak said with regret in her voice,''Sadly but yes. She will forget everything. Everything that has happened till now. ''
Thena took the hand of Gilgamish in her hand. She looked in the eyes of Gilgamish and said,'' I do not want to forget. I want to.remember everything. Every moment that I spent with all of you. You are all my family, I can not live without those memories.'' She has tears in her eyes. She is on the verge of breaking.
Gilgamish said, '' But those memories will make you crazy and I can not see it? Please forgive me?'' Then he turned towards Ajak and said,'' We are ready do it.''
Suddenly Thena said, '' No no I want to remember, Please I want to remember. ''
Before she can continue I spoke up,'' Wow. What a reunion, quite a melodrama. I did not even think of such a sad sacrifice scene.''
