Chapter 4: Chapter 4: The Challenge of the Gods
After the Avengers managed to subdue Escanor, they decided to help him understand the forces at play in this universe. Doctor Strange opened a portal to the Karmic Realm, a place where beings of great power, like the Celestials and other gods, convened.
Escanor, still unsure of his place in this new world, met the gods of this reality. The Celestials, towering beings of unimaginable power, looked down on him with curiosity. Odin, the All-Father, was particularly intrigued. "You are a strange one, mortal," he said. "You wield the power of the sun, but you are also far more—your pride is as radiant as your power."
Escanor, standing among gods, finally understood what had been missing: humility. Though his strength could obliterate worlds, it was only by understanding that strength and respecting the balance of power that he could truly ascend to greatness.
