In the beginning, before the six Singularities and the dawn of creation came the Celestials. Arishem, the Prime Celestial, created the first sun and brought light into the universe. Life began and thrived. All was balanced.

Until an unnatural species of predator emerged from the deep space to feed on intelligent life. They were known as Deviants. The universe was plunged into chaos.

To restore the natural order, Arishem sent Eternals; immortal heroes from the planet Olyimpia to eliminate the Deviants.
