Info from Liturgy of Death [+]Loading...["Liturgy of Death (audio story)"] needs to be added
The Suspension of Geren came to be a part of the Eternity Club. She played canasta with Bernice Summerfield and advised her to win 312 over by locating the Ascension Pennant, which Benny soon did. (AUDIO: The Armageddon Chair [+]Loading...["The Armageddon Chair (audio story)"])
Geren joined Grizella's expedition to the City of Parroon. (AUDIO: Triumph of the Drahvin [+]Loading...["Triumph of the Drahvin (audio story)"]) She had heard it rumoured that Grizella used to put eyeballs in her mouth on the battlefield, accounting for her ability to fix many grapes in her mouth at once.
Whilst speaking with Benny about the beekeeper in the walled garden, who was actually Secretary Pym, Geren witnessed Starll arriving to give bubble bath to Professor Altazar and heard him repeatedly say "rhubarb". She gossiped about this with Grizella and soon everybody was saying it, which Benny later found was due to Derek the Tree's telepathic network. (AUDIO: Rhubarb [+]Loading...["Rhubarb (audio story)"])
Benny held a birthday party for Geren, who was unfamiliar with human customs and was unable to blow out her birthday candles on account of being a living gas. Although Starll blew out her candles instead, she still made a wish: that Benny would soon learn the truth.

After the club learnt that the Liturgy of Death were on their way and after somebody, Geren overheard Benny telling Pym that the Oldest should be handed over to them. Geren informed the others and they worked together to hide the Oldest from Benny and prepare to defend the club against the Liturgy. When the Liturgy overcame the clockwork droids, they demanded to know which club member was the Master and threatened to kill them if the secret was not shared.
