He is later freed by Thanos, who secretly desires the Soul Gem the In-Betweener wears, as it is one of the six Infinity Gems.

Infinity Watch

Warlock expunged the good and evil portions of his personality while holding the gauntlet which limited his ability to exploit aspects of the Soul Gem.

Master Order and Lord Chaos participated in the congress of metaphysical and abstract beings to determine Thanos's fitness to wield the Infinity Gauntlet.
