Okay so I haven't posted anything in about 2 years but ssshhh...

Apologies if anyone has already posted this theory, but the 'our loki will be with our Mobius' line from the featurete has reminded me of this. I don't think the Mobius we see at the end of S1 is from an alternative universe. I think it is still 'our Mobius'. Instead, Mobius doesn't recognise Loki because Loki has never existed.

Now Sylvie has killed He Who Remains, she is in control of the timeline. She uses her new power to give herself what she's always wanted: a life. To do this, she must first remove the existing life the Sacred Loki lives and replace it with her own. Two Lokis existing at once would probably cause too many nexus events for time to flow smoothly. Instead, Sylvie replaces Sacred Loki's life with her own, mundane one. This is why she works at McDonald's so she can live a normal life.

Loki, therefore doesn't exist, especially not in any significance for the TVA to take nite which is why Mobius doesn't recognise our Loki.

I think the climax of the series will be Mobius in trying to restore Loki back into the timeline by wearing the temperal radiation suit and physically repairing the timeline... risking his life to do so.

However, I think by removing Loki from the timeline, the timeline as a whole will begin to unravel. Without Loki, Thor remains an arrogant prince and never becomes a hero. The Avengers never assembled to stop Loki in New York. Thanos easily wipes out the half universe. This makes it even easier for Kang to take control of time with no opposition to stop him.

And loki will see that, even though he mainly played the role of villain on the timeline, he was just as vital as any of the heroes.

The ship from the new loki trailer... Apparently could teleport through time and different dimensions...

Sorry for the awful quality, but this has to be Bermuda triangle related right?

The shipwreck in the foreground is one of the many that have gone missing and I thing there's a spaceship in the background which fits with some of the theories surrounding the triangle. The blue green shapes in the back might also be the sea of waves?

Maybe this is another TVA blind spot, like the apocalypses, where the loki variants can hide?

Anyone else think that maybe the time keepers don't exist? I'm getting Wizard of Oz vibes from them...

It's kind of suspect that only Renslayer seems to have met them, but there's a chance she's lying. I'm assuming that the pen she uses in the second episode hints that's not actually from the TVA but is a Variant who worked her way through the ranks. Considering how the TVA views variants as 'cosmic mistakes', it wouldn't be too far fetched to believe she needs to keep this a secret to avoid being pruned. Therefore, blackmailing her to lie about the time keepers wouldn't be very hard.

The time keepers being fictious could also explain C-20's reaction when she's found by Mobius. By saying 'it's real' over and over, she could be trying to convince herself that the hierarchy she's always believed in is real despite finding out it isn't. The fugitive loki knows that the time keepers are not real and uses this to torture c-20 until she reveals their supposed location. Perhaps there the truth behind the TVA will be revealed. This could also explain why the fugitive scoffed at our Loki's idea of over throwing the time keepers since she knows that they don't exist.

I think that the time keepers will turn out to be just figureheads of authority that exist just to inspire the TVA to keep working and to convince them they are fulfilling a noble purpose. It would fit in with the themes of lies and betrayal we've already seen touched upon and the idea that nothing is ever wholly good nor bad.

What do you guys think?
