In the quiet place where his father closed his eyes in meditation, the sound of a lightsaber being activated broke the silence and pointed directly at his face.

"Are you still sleepy?" He opened his silver-blue eyes and stared at the young man in front of him. He was Skywalker and the child of this family. "As a Jedi Knight, it is not right to attack a defenseless person." His tone revealed deep concern.

Skywalker looked around, his eyes full of confusion and anger. "The moment I stepped into this room, I could not help but feel the urge in my heart. You are the Sith Lord, aren't you?" His voice was full of doubt.

"Your understanding of this universe is still shallow." The father spoke slowly, "I am neither a Jedi nor a Sith. The meaning of my existence is more to protect you and your world." A hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and he turned to Anakin and Spider-Man.

"Look, we found that strange bat-like creature in Anakin's room." Spider-Man's voice was a little uneasy, "Please tell us what happened here."

The father did not answer immediately, but grasped the blade of the blue lightsaber with his bare hands. When he stood up, the tightly grasped lightsaber seemed to be wailing. At this moment, Anakin and Spider-Man were shocked by the scene before them.

“Some people, unable to understand us, call us the holders of the Force. But in fact, we are more like messengers of heaven.” There was an otherworldly solemnity in his voice.

Anakin looked down at his inoperable lightsaber, then looked up at the mysterious figure who had suddenly appeared. His tall figure seemed to transcend the scope of a Jedi Knight.

"Hmm..." Spider-Man muttered, looking at Anakin's lightsaber, "Do you know any Jedi who can do something like that?"

"Unless a weapon is made of vibranium, it cannot match our power," Vision commented cautiously, the Mind Stone gleaming in his palm.

The Father's eyes moved over them, as if he was looking into their souls. He was watching them quietly, as if time had stopped at that moment.

"Who are you?" Anakin asked. "You are never mentioned among the Jedi."

"Our existence is little known." There was a deep wisdom in my father's voice.

“Like Bendu?”

My father paused, his eyes widening for a moment before he smiled nostalgically.

"Bendu? My old friend is still alive?" The father laughed. "I should have realized that sooner. You have met him, haven't you? No, you were his student."

Vision took a deep breath and stared at the elder in front of him with a dazed look. He asked in confusion, "Are you one of them?" Vision shook his head slightly, and a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in his eyes: "No, you are the one left behind. You are one of the three gods mentioned by Bendu."

The father nodded, seeming satisfied with Vision's understanding. "Ah, so he mentioned us as well. This comforts me, at least for you, it doesn't confuse you. The exposed stone on your forehead, the knowledge you have, is actually just the tip of the iceberg."

At this time, Spider-Man spoke up, interrupting Anakin's thoughts: "Hey, wait, the ghost in that room, not that guy, what is it?" He was referring to the illusion that appeared in Arnie's room. "The person inside looks like Arnie's mother, but she's different."

The father stroked his beard and after some reflection replied, "I doubt that it was my son. You see, we can take many forms. The shapes we embody are simply a reflection of the life force around us. For our true appearance is incomprehensible to others."

Spider-Man asked curiously: "What are they?"

The father replied, "In terms of size, even a normal planet cannot compare to our complete existence."

Spider-Man's eyes widened. "So you can grow bigger? Like Scott?"

My father shook his head. “I don’t know who you’re referring to Scott, but we are capable of far more than you think.”

Anakin interrupted their conversation, "Alright, alright, old man. What are we doing here? Why did you bring us here?"

The father asked in return: "What makes you think our presence has anything to do with you?"

"That's an easy assumption to make, given your obvious curiosity about Anakin and us," Vision said in a slightly serious tone.

My father hummed softly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "We have been observing in secret, studying silently, and watching the Milky Way turn upside down. All those who are affected by our power can feel our presence."

Anakin was even more confused, "Our power? Isn't that the Force?"

The father replied, "Yes and no. My children and I can manipulate the Force like anyone else, but we possess a power far beyond that."

"However, you have only seen part of the Force. In fact, the power contained here is far beyond your imagination." His father's eyes turned to the Mind Stone on Vision's forehead, as if looking for some kind of answer. "Take the Infinity Stones as an example." He explained.

The father slowly walked towards the robot Avenger, staring at the being and the stone embedded within it. "Before you called it the Force, there was only raw energy. It is called the Cosmic Force, a force that can shape the fabric of the universe. Each stone focuses on a different element of the universe we inhabit. When these six unite, they will wield powers that even the gods can only dream of or have difficulty reaching."

"That sounds fascinating, but what does it have to do with us here?" Anakin asked, confused. "You call yourselves Celestials, but I don't even know what that means. What exactly is this place? The Force... this is beyond anything I've ever felt."

Spider-Man rubbed his temple with a headache. "That confuses me, too."

My father was silent for a moment, then he said, “Do you know the story of this galaxy?”

Anakin shook his head.

"This special place has unlimited potential." The god said as if he was telling an ancient legend. "In this galaxy, many residents are born with the ability to harness the energy of the universe. You can call it the Force."

"Bendu told me that the Celestials had observed and experimented on the inhabitants of this galaxy before you... Your child left and never returned."

"It's not that we have a choice, at least... I don't." The Father's tone revealed a sense of vicissitudes and helplessness. "I was too ambitious and too eager to create miracles here. I wanted to create celestial bodies with the sacrifice of fewer planets. My leader judged my actions... My children and I were led here. In the end, the three of us decided to stay away from the troubles of the world and settle here. We decided to never interfere in the right and wrong of the Milky Way again."

"Is this a refuge?"

“This is both a sanctuary and a prison for the mistakes we have made until today.”

Vision thought back over what he recalled from Bendu's story and came to a conclusion. "The one who saw herself as the mother of your child?"

My father sighed tiredly, his eyes showing sadness and regret. "Yes...she...the Queen of Stars...my Queen..."

The father closed his eyes and bowed his head. "You cannot understand how painful it is to have such a deep love for your children and for others. When you realize that if left unchecked, they could tear apart the fabric of our universe."

Spider-Man quips lightheartedly, "That doesn't sound very heartwarming."

Anakin said, "You still haven't explained clearly why you stay here, other than the so-called 'punishment'."

"Only here can I control them and monitor the mistakes we make. A balanced home, light and dark, day and night, destruction and creation, order and chaos."

"Then why did you reveal your existence to us?" Anakin asked.

"There are those who desire to exploit our powers and gifts," my father answered. "The Sith are but one of them. As you know, too much darkness or light can lead to the extinction of life. When word comes that the Chosen One has been found through the Force, I must be there to witness it myself at some point."

Anakin said firmly, "The Chosen One is nothing more than a myth."

But my father chuckled. "Perhaps? But I really want to know the truth. Why don't we find the answer together? With a test, I can reveal the truth. Then you and your friends can leave."
