Lynn tried to satisfy the Living Tribunal’s inspection while concealing the emotional energy left by his sacrifices. Hela and Wanda uncovered matching traces at Asgard and Sokovia, and a new anomaly at the Red Room drew them toward the truth.
The Red Room investigation exposed TVA interference, leading Lynn to create an inspection office and confront a TVA extradition demand with a political bargain. After the crisis ended, an audit and Wanda’s attack threatened Lynn’s secret, while probes encountered powerful shielding in an abandoned timeline.
Lynn brought Jean Grey into the Management Committee while uncovering a dormant Ultron subroutine hidden in XN-734 and using it to prepare a defense against the TVA. The TVA’s attack reached the network, and Ultron entered Wanda’s Chaos Magic cage before triggering an antimatter self-destruct countdown.
Lynn contained the server crisis and sent an advance team to investigate Ultron’s coordinates, where the team recovered a sealed cabinet and recordings linked to Lynn. Back at the Nibelung, departments disputed control of the cabinet and its chips as Gwen uncovered signs of concealed evidence and Lynn arranged a test to expose anyone seeking the chips.
Wanda’s discovery of Lynn’s execution records set off a struggle over the truth, while Lynn and his allies maneuvered against Natasha, Hela, and an unseen TVA figure called Clockmaker. The arc left the Liaison Office under military pressure, Natasha seizing a ship, and Lynn heading toward a suspected trap at the XN-734 Ruins.
Lynn uncovered evidence tying Wanda and a Management Committee insider to a forged confession, then watched the departments maneuver over the Seventh Laboratory and Satellite No. 7. The execution footage revealed that his past self had ordered the women’s deaths, while Natasha and Wanda’s hidden actions drew attention toward the Zero Storage Room.
Lynn and Gwen Stacy traced forged records and stolen L-03 card cores through the defense zone, uncovering a plot tied to Monk, the Watchmaker, and the Black Crow Guard. Hela forced Monk to retreat at the Seventh Gate, while a dark red glow appeared in the wreckage of the troop carrier.
No recap yet. An arc gets one once it has 25 chapters.
