By the end of season 4, part 1, Landon learned a shocking truth about Cal and his destiny. He learned that Cal is the Dragon. For the unversed, the Dragon here in context is a person prophesied to stop the apocalypse, according to the "Callings". This means that Cal's character has to be alive and well to save the whole world from ruin by defeating Holly Taylor's character "Angelina". However, Cal was dying due to cancer.

In the finale episode, Zeke himself agreed that his return had a major purpose behind it. After learning about Cal being the Dragon but that his cancer was the biggest hurdle, Zeke made the ultimate sacrifice.
