To understand what
I'm about to tell you,


you need to do something first.

You need to believe in the impossible.

Can you do that?

Nope. I can't believe it.

Eddie Thawne is the avatar

of the Negative Speed Force?

Yes. That's the reason the crystal

has been attacking us across time.

It was charging with power.

Sounds to me like

we could really use the Flash
right about now.

the timeline will fall.

And then I'll make a new one

The more I embrace who I truly am,

the more I see the natural
order of things.

You say balance
is about v*olence and death,

Nature is about more than balance.

It's about coexistence.

Not in conflict, but in mutual trust.

Khione, the last avatar I faced...

I sat down.

I stopped fighting.
