As Reality was deep in slumber, the spirit of truths and lies was now conscious. He was now a humanoid being and he was hugging Reality while closing his eyes the second after he transformed. He then opened his eyes and saw Reality, sleeping in his arms. He couldn't deny that Reality looked quite adorable. He then let Reality go and floated upwards then said "Finally... I am conscious at last. I feel the energy of truths, for this universe is absolute and true". The Grand Eternals were watching the birth of Truths and Lies consciousness and also Truths and Lies itself. Void smiled even in his state of eternal apathy for another Eternal is now conscious.

Truths and Lies could feel The Grand Eternals watching him and then looked up to see them. "Thank you... I say with truth, for your kindness" He said to them while bowing down. "No need to bow down, for we are equal" Time said, but Truths and Lies know there was a hint of lie in that sentence. He turned around then went back to Reality and the spirit of the half conscious fate. Knowing that Eternals and Grand Eternals aren't equal, he had this burning feeling of denying it. When he denied it, he didn't realize that he had created a demon from denying. And that was the "Incident of Everlasting Denial".

That demon of denial who was still unconscious was discovered by Creation and that demon was brought to the other Grand Eternals. "The first demon... Denial" Creation said to them. Suddenly, a voice appeared and said to The Grand Eternals "Do not kill this demon, for it will change the course of fate and it will lead to-" The voice then disappeared before saying the full sentence. Time looked around and saw a glimpse of the spirit of fate. "Maybe that one Eternal was conscious this whole time..." Time said, pointing at the spirit of fate that was now circling the two other Eternals that were conscious.

"Fate... Mysterious yet beautiful

Is fate already conscious?

Or is it his unconsciousness that said that...

Why are we talking about fate?
Isn't this about Truths and lies

And Denial...?

Another Eternal awakened

The last Eternal still unconscious

Or is he?

A new demon born

Denying everything it sees

Stay vigilant

And listen to what "I" say"
