Eloise Gardener (Character)

"Eloise Gardener is a member of a dangerous cult. That symbol you've been chasing, that's their symbol. That's why Eloise ran away all those years ago. She was seduced into this cult, indoctrinated, rising through the ranks until she, eventually, became their leader."

- Weaver to Rogers
