Eternity. It stretched before him like an endless, barren desert—no beginning, no end, just an infinite expanse of unchanging monotony. The days bled into nights, the nights into days, until time lost all meaning. The relentless march of moments became a prison, each second a reminder of his perpetual confinement

At first, the promise of forever seemed like a gift, a chance to explore, to experience, to savor every facet of existence. But soon, the thrill dulled, and the reality of his situation began to sink in. No friends and loved ones to either and fade. Being left to wander alone, a solitary witness to the endless cycle of life and death became but a fate worse than death

For Earth-71 Henry West-Allen, the promise of no end was the joy and fulfillment of life but in the Casey expanse of the multiverse lived another, Henry Thawne; having been abandoned by his family at a very young age, no father, no mother; born to wonder the world alone

He became a tormenter...judge, jury and executioner; he had no emotion, no regret, no remorse, life had so little to offer except for a kingdom, but the world has become his kingdom, running alone for all eternity

But what's the point of being alone if you're trapped in a prison all your own? Time has become his prison, seconds, minutes, hours, days..that was a prison all for him

His choices had come to torture; one man responsible for the downfall of Speed Demon..his own family..his own relative had trapped him in a prison..and for that.. was something he'd never forget

Future Erick: Thinking again, are we?

Future Erick says to his nephew more as a laugh then a question; Henry cracked his neck before huffing out as he rose up to his feet, closing his eyes for a moment thinking about how nice it'd be to kill his uncle..unfortunately for him, he didn't have the power here; Henry reopens his eyes and then spoke

Henry: You come to gloat, Erick?

Henry: You come to gloat, Erick?

Future Erick chuckled, leaning back in his seat as he rest his left arm on his knee

Future Erick: Just came to check up on you.

Henry: Like you care.

He replied starting to pace thought they were basically baby steps given his small space

Henry: If you cared, you wouldn't have trapped me...

He raises his arms then slams them back down in front of him, letting out a scream in front of Erick though the ten thousand year old speedster wasn't the least bit concerned about his scream
