Will he be stuck waiting for an eon until the next creation then pester someone there to go after a resurging xykon? Will he be stuck in limbo forever because xykon will be too powerful for anyone in the new world to stop him? Or do the gods have contingencies for cases like his in the event of a snarl reset? Eugene's future is extremely shaky right now.
(And yes, I'm aware this is a moot point if xykon leaves without his phylactery thanks to Redcloak pulling a switcheroo)
