A throne, at last. Just not the one he wanted.
Loki, God of Stories, sits alone at the end of time, sustaining the multiverse with his magic and his silence. He is the Anchor. The center. The gardener of a tree that grows with every story ever told. But gods were not made for stillness. His solution is elegant, and perhaps a little mad: a fragment of himself, placed into the soul of the unborn. An avatar. A life lived in his stead.
The rewards are immense. The tree grows. His power deepens. But the multiverse is not a quiet garden—it is a living, evolving thing. New branches have begun to sprout, branches he did not plant. And with them come eyes. Ancient eyes. Curious eyes. Hungry eyes.
The God of Mischief has built something glorious. But glory attracts attention. And when you sit on the highest throne in existence, the only thing more dangerous than what's below you... is what might be above.
