Breaking Points
After Darwin had met the grown up version of Tier, he swore to kill Tier. Darwin manged to chase Tier down and was about to kill Tier, but Vanora arrived and he escaped. At the same time Wolfsbane also caught up with Tier and after a small rustle Tier recognized his mother. Since Vanora didn’t like Wolfsbane she attacked them both, but was stopped by Shatterstar, who then teleported Tier and Wolfsbane to safe location.
Hell On Earth War
They didn’t stay safe for long however, the gods found them again. Tier and his mother went back to New York and X-Factor. There it was revealed that Tier needed to die to prevent the Hell on Earth War. Tier soon found out that he was able to hurt and kill the Hell-Lords, who were on earth battling themselves over total rule of hell. At first Tier didn’t want to fight, but after Mephista explains that nothing will be left of Earth if he stands idly by, Tier decides to kill Mephisto, who won the war between Hell-Lords. On his way to Mephisto, he also killed all other Hell-Lord who were imprisoned in Mephisto’s castle. And just as he was about to deliver the killing blow to Mephisto himself, he was ran through with a trident by Guido. Tier disappeared in a flash of light and Guido became the master of Hell.
The resurrection resources of the mutant island of Krakoa are used to see if Tier could be come back. It was found that his status as alive or dead was uncertain; this must be verified beforehand.
