While they do not interfere in the matters of the Universe unless it involves reality bending, worlds and dimension colliding shit, they do make an exception.

When a certain world keeps attracting this kind of problem, the Five Seat of Orvan would employ more aggressive methods like erasing memories or plucking out people who forces that world to such strait out from the stream of time and existence.

And that is among the threats that Sovereign guard the world from. Loki is quite sentimental today

'My lord, are you going to keep standing there?'

'Ah' Loki exclaimed, startled by the sudden voice. He almost did not realize that he had reached his destination

He is in front of some rocks and boulders, the wind blows strong harsh wind bringing the coldness of the air. A few hundred meters from them, Loki could see a snake the size of a Titanoboa slithering across some forest

Loki glance toward that snake as the snake seems to treat Loki like his snack. The moment he glances toward that snake; he releases a bit of his energy.

Saber intent seems to shoot out from his eyes and cut the diamond scale of that snake. 

Like a hot knife cutting butter, the snake scales fall down to the ground and the snake immediately retreated

Loki clicked his tongue.

'This mind of mine' he complained to himself. 

His thought process is fast. Even when he is moving in super speed, his mind we rethinking all of that in the span of a few seconds.

He could not help it. Sometimes, he thinks of these old memories of another timeline. Of course, it is not simply because he is struck by nostalgia or something like that.

It is just that he revised his memories.

Certain memories would disappear sometimes. Side effect of using the method of separating each part of the soul into seven kind-of-thing.

At times, he also just stares at some empty space and think about all kinds of memoires. 

What he fears the most is not only losing the memories, but also  if he somehow distorted some of the memories

Because of that, his calculations also included some backup plans if he were ever to destroy some memories and step into the wrong path

The key to a flawless calculation of fate and destiny had to be started from the cause. Fate and destiny come when cause birthed effect

Of course, there are some that went out of this calculation. Effect that does not come from any cause. 

There is one certain thing like that in the Universe

It is not something that he could calculate. 

But for other things, like some kind of law of motions, there is a way to determine them with his calculations.

Every single action in the universe produces a reaction. an original starting point

One step, one blows of wind, a simple moving of one pebble of a stone, start a chain reaction of events with further offshoots spanning out in all direction and so on and on as duplication and replication take place. 

That is the simple explanation of some laws that underpinned his calculations of fate and destiny. 

But this is only one of it. 

This alone could not calculate all kinds of factors that needs to be calculated for Loki to flawlessly execute his plans without mistake

As there are particles, atoms that even though one could not realize it does affect something. And once something affects other things, it creates a reaction

Kind of like a butterfly effect. 

Loki, each time when he makes a calculation, other than this laws, he also needs to distinguish between causal relations or mere correlations which is hard to distinguish if you only see one part of the story

Cause and effect sometimes do not explain everything. 

When all you seek is causal relations, he would never be able to see the real power that binds, a metaphysical glue that binds event together

Most of what he could see, if he only uses the law of cause and effect is regularities, the constant conjunction of certain sorts of observation.

Only by going further, go beyond the evidence of memory and senses that he could see more. 

And the Universe, the Omniverse and all of its subsets did not necessarily plays by the same rules. 

As for the causal effect, this also had something else that it could also be think of as irrelevant sometimes

This is mostly observed in physics 

If you can't observe certain particles or atoms, how can you measure them? if you can't measure them, how can then you put it in an equation.

Causality has a definite direction in time, causes have to happen before the effect.

Yet, the basic law of physics, appear to be time-symmetric.

If a certain process is allowed under the basic law of physics, a recording of the same process played backward will also depicts a process that is allowed by the laws.

This is not entirely to disprove the causality effect. 

It simply because sometime the cause is unidentified and as Loki had known, not all worlds and all universes possess the same Law.

He then shakes his head. Once again, his mind goes to other places. 

Loki could notice that Trisha is looking at the back of his head even without him turning back

He turns back for a moment and wave his finger, like he is reminding Trisha of something.

'You know I sometime…...be like this'

'I know' Loki nodded and said.

'I guess enough thinking for a few moments'

'If my lord wanted to save time, that would be advisable'

Loki chuckles. 

Trisha had been waiting for him to use the key for a few seconds already. But she was not as frustrated as she appears to be.

She must be still angry about him calling her his dear little child. 

'Forgive me. I was lost in my thoughts' Loki smiles and chuckles a bit. Today, brings a lot of memories to him.

One of the events had been completed. Six events to go. Feeling that the time for the battle of the End is nearing make him feel a lot of emotions.

bad emotions. Good emotions. And feeling of hope and despair fighting against each other.

Of course, the Battle of the End would not happen for a few more hundred years. But to him, a few hundred years is nothing.

He then sighed. 

Trisha pretend she did not hear it as Loki brought out his key and throws it to the ground. 

The ground shakes for a second, as the key seems to merge with the ground. Magic circle full of all kinds of word character is rearranging itself inside the magic circle

It did not emanate any powerful surge of energy. 

it is designed not to since if each time they enter the Nowhere Land a surge of energy is released; it would not be long before someone find out that there is something wrong about this island

The ground then suddenly depressed. But it is only depressed in a small circle. Such circle only fit two people

It seems the magic circle would adjust itself according to the people it wanted to bring. 

And it did not simply depress the land, the land inside the small circle fragmented and then revealed a spiraling dark abyss that seems to lead to nowhere. 

Loki did not say anything as he jumps into the dark abyss followed by Trisha. 

He jumps into it without hesitation followed by Trisha who did not look like she had just jumped into an abyss leading to darkness.

A moment later, they arrive at another area. It is almost like they were teleported there. Loki tilt his head left and right a bit.

He did not seems surprised at all. And his face is as calm as ever.

Trisha check to see if is anything missing on her person. Loki notices that.

'What are you doing?'

'Checking if something is missing'

Loki seems puzzled.

Then he asks

'Is there a case of something missing when going through the tunnel?'

Trisha simply said

'Heard some of the staff in the simulation room said they lose some stuff. Minor stuff. Some lost their keys. Some lost their access cards. Others lost a part of their clothes. Common thing about them all, is that they have a bit of energy signature around each of the items that is missing'

'Maybe, it had something to do with Slimey. I will check on him. Maybe, he is hungry.  The last time I gave him any food was a few years ago.'

Loki laughed

'You called one of the monsters of the Dark Universe, Slimey?'

Trisha raised her shoulders and said

'he is not that bad.'

Loki then remind her

'That slime is one of eldritch creature'

'A baby eldritch creature' Trisha countered.

Loki could only shake his head as he turns back to see the sprawling puzzle in front of him. He is teleported into a mazelike area. 

Trisha also stopped talking about Slimey and then look at the maze area in front of her

She shakes her head and said

'You know, my lord, I always objected putting this maze into the design of Nowhere Land' she said. 

Loki just waved his hand like he is dismissing Trisha objection

'Don't you think it made the Nowhere Land more mysterious like this'

'I think my lord just like to torture the staff of this facility' Loki only chuckles at this.
