As the remaining Quiet Council are discussing family matters and their plans on going home, Kafka the winged mutant boy overhears the conversation and starts to have doubts. Kafka eventually talks to Exodus about his doubt about how the rest of the mutants may have to stay behind in White Hot Krakoa while some of the mutants are selected to go home (and fight Orchis). The Quiet Council and the chosen mutants prepare for a ritual which Mister Sinister empties a vial of Cypher's genes into the pool so that Krakoa could help them in teleporting the mutants back home. The Krakoan vines wrap around Mister Sinister & the mutants and turns them into buds. Hope Summers remains behind on White Hot Krakoa as she reminds herself that she has to bring Phoenix Force back and she has some Messiah shit to do. Back on Earth, Apocalypse is dragging Krakoa-Treant back to Krakoa island when the chosen mutants pop right out of the flowers.
Much later, Hope Summers is having much difficulty in dealing with the Phoenix Force and Jean Grey. In order to save all of mutantkind and resurrect both the Phoenix and Jean Grey, Hope alongside the help of Legion (as the talking Hope Gun) shot the Phoenix with the consequence being her sacrificing herself in the process. Jean and the Phoenix have come back but Hope is gone. Meanwhile, the mutants are fighting the Stark Sentinels on the ruins of Krakoa island when Exodus, Destiny and Mystique teleport in. The Hope Sword is back in Nightcrawler's hands. Even though Destiny hugs Nightcrawler after some getting her motherly memories back from Xavier, she gives the bad news - Hope Summers is dead. Exodus at first doesn't believe it then announces that Hope has returned to whence she came. "The word made flesh, the flesh made immortal. She is with Krakoa in exile in spirit." Nightcrawler says the Krakoan mutants are trapped in the White Hot Room, lost forever. But Exodus, returning to the fight and attacking a Sentinel, says the people of Krakoa will return, that the Krakoan age will come again. Nightcrawler asks Destiny if they can win but she still sees no victory.
The Krakoan mutants including the Five minus Hope and Jumbo Carnation are stuck in the White Hot Krakoan Room arguing around a table trying to figure out how they will function, who will do what, etc. Little Kafka gets annoyed and tells everyone to shut up. He tells the room that they have to be better than this, that they have no rulers, no leaders, no heroes. That they have to be the Quiet Council and that means they have to listen. He takes charge and starts working to assign tasks such as food supply, tutoring, teaching. It's a bittersweet last page as that little hero is determined to make Krakoa, despite being lost in the White Hot Room.
The trapped Krakoan mutants in the White Hot Room reminds me of the ending of Drifting Classroom manga when the elementary school students in the bad future dimension cannot go home after several tries. So the trapped students decide to stay and work together in the ruined future to build a new civilization.

Wat voor soort land wordt Rusland? Die vraag is niet heel makkelijk te beantwoorden. In het publieke debat ontbreekt het niet aan stellige beweringen: Rusland is een Burkina Faso met kernwapens; Rusland is een land dat altijd de prooi zal zijn aan zijn eigen mythes van imperium en morele superioriteit; waar de slavenmentaliteit altijd de overhand zal hebben boven democratische tendenzen…
These are some facts and curiosities about Eva Braun, Hitler's one-day wife:
She was born in Munich
After attending high school, she found a job as a sales assistant in the studio of Hitler's personal photographer, Heinrich Hoffmann.
The meeting between the young girl and the future Führer took place in October 1929, but, initially, Eva was not particularly impressed by that gentleman "of a certain age with a funny mustache".
Their relationship becomes serious around 1932.
In view of the important elections of 1932, Hitler and his entourage toured Germany far and wide, busy with the electoral campaign. Eva remains alone for a long time, until, on November 1st, she shoots herself in the throat.
On May 28, 1935, she attempted suicide again by ingesting sleeping pills, but this time too she managed to save herself.
She loves spending holidays at the Berghof, Hitler's personal residence.
Eva ignored Emmy Göring. Ilse Hess, on the contrary, was always welcome, Eva considered her a friend and a potential confidant.
Traudl Junge later stated that Eva Braun hated Hitler's dog, Blondi, and that she sometimes kicked her.
The German people were kept in the dark about the fact that Hitler had a live-in partner.
Eva returned to Munich to celebrate her 33rd birthday with her family, but immediately left for Berlin to stay close to her partner.
The two were married on April 29 by Walter Wagner, in the presence of Joseph Goebbels and Martin Bormann. The bride wears a black silk dress and is proud to be able to write the name "Eva Hitler" on the official document.
Eva Braun and Adolf Hitler committed suicide on the afternoon of Monday 30 April 1945, around 3.30 pm.
The bodies are burned and buried in the Chancellery garden.
