Mordru
By the 28th Century, it had become the favourite tool of Mordru - who could override it's will - in building and running his empire. This lasted until the Lady Mysa's alliance finally stopped him - at the cost of all but Mysa's own life, while she was left heavily aged. The Eye managed to escape being buried for a hundred years with the rest of Mordru's talismans by Mysa. Mysa would spend the next century, on and off, searching for it.
Dormancy
After this, the Eye entered a period of dormancy, possibly to hide from Mysa, and was found by Scavenger, who stored it amongst his collection of powerful and ancient artifacts on Korr.
It then remained there until the Legion of Super-Heroes, with Scavenger's old enemy Superboy in tow, showed up; aiming to retrieve a component for a Stasis Zone portal. The paranoid Scavenger fought them, and the Eye was awoken when Superboy threw Scavenger into the casing where it - along with the Philosopher's Stone, a Flash costume and a Hawkman mask - was stored.

Seduction
Rather than announcing its' presence, it watched, and chose to save Shrinking Violet when Scavenger used the Philosopher's Stone to choke her with ammonia Lgs #40, preserving her until Triad changed it to oxygen. Lgs #31. It then boosted her confidence as she beat Scavenger, and covertly followed her back to Legion HQ. It then spent a considerable time thereafter seducing Violet, soothing her worries, boosting her confidence and allowing her to become more outgoing, as she wished to be. Lgs #40
In the meantime, Mysa had conscripted Kinetix to help search for the Eye itself. Teleported away and told her not to come back without the Eye Lgs #34, she emerged into a pitched battle between the Legion and the Fatal Five. Confused, she was just in time to save Violet from the Empress, who herself displayed interest in the Eye. However, Kinetix did not think anything significant about the fact that she had emerged directly beside Violet... Lgs #36
