- "The men who enter that water... the legends don't end well."
- ―Erik Selvig to Thor[src]
Leaving the safe haven provided by Clint Barton's Homestead, Thor told Steve Rogers that he must unlock the secrets of the hallucinations created by Wanda Maximoff during the Battle at the Salvage Yard. Thor found Erik Selvig to help him to find the "Water of Sight". Thor entered the pool and lightning engulfed him as he revisited his nightmare. He saw visions of the destruction of Asgard, of the Infinity Stones, and the birth of Vision.[1]
