Temporal Loom

The Temporal Loom was a device that refined raw time into a physical timeline and served as a failsafe to maintain the Sacred Timeline.
==History==
===Failsafe Protocol===
He Who Remains designed the Temporal Loom to serve as a failsafe to protect the Sacred Timeline in order to delete branching timelines that were not supposed to grow and isolate the Sacred Timeline from the Multiverse, ensuring balance. However, when He Who Remains was killed by Sylvie Laufeydottir and the Multiverse began expanding, the Loom began to overload with an infinite amount of branching timelines.Loki: 2.06: Glorious Purpose
===Overloaded===
With the Sacred Timeline no longer intact, the Temporal Loom began to be overloaded with all the new branching timelines. With the option of pruning branches out of the question, Ouroboros attempted to retrofit it to handle the new branches, but it was before he gave Loki and Mobius M. Mobius instructions on how to stop Loki from Time Slipping. With Loki in the future, Mobius headed out near the Temporal Loom and locked in the Temporal Aura Extractor. In the future, Loki was pruned and yanked through the Temporal Loom sending him and Mobius through the blast doors just as they closed.Loki: 2.01: Ouroboros
Ouroboros attempted to stabilize the Temporal Loom with the aid of Hunter B-15 and Casey, only to discover that he was locked out from controlling the blast doors and that they could only be accessed by He Who Remains and Miss Minutes. Since neither of them were present, the Temporal Loom was about to undergo meltdown that could destroy the Time Variance Authority Office.Loki: 2.02: Breaking Brad
Dox's attack on the branching timelines proved to be futile since the pruned branches started to appear again and caused the Temporal Loom to undergo meltdown again. Loki and Mobius attempted to find Miss Minutes and bring her to fix the loom before encountering Victor Timely, a variant of He Who Remains whose temporal aura could help them in gaining access to the blast doors.Loki: 2.03: 1893
Bringing Timely to the TVA office, Ouroboros explained his plan of using a Throughput Multiplier to expand the capacity of the Temporal Loom. With Timely's help, they were able to create the sufficient multiplier and access the blast doors. But just as Timely intended to intergrate the multiplier with the loom, the intense temporal radiation spaghettified both him and his invention. Shortly after, the overloading branches destroyed the Temporal Loom and caused a massive blast wave to surge into the unprotected TVA.Loki: 2.04: Heart of the TVA
===Destroyed by Loki===
Once Loki gained control of his Time Slipping ability, he went back in time to the TVA, to before the Temporal Loom implosion in an attempt to stop it. However, after countless attempts and even spending centuries learning physics and engineering, his attempts had all failed. It wasn't until he was told by Victor Timely that the Temporal Loom would not be able to hold an ever expanding multiverse, chalking it up to a scaling issue. 
Knowing this information, Loki decided to Time Slip to before He Who Remains' death to seek information about the Temporal Loom. It was revealed to Loki that the Temporal Loom was designed as a failsafe system, designed to only protect the Sacred Timeline in the event of uncontrollable branching. Upon learning this, Loki wanted to break the Loom, only for He Who Remains to tell him that this wasn't a feasible option. Without a Loom, all of time including the Sacred Timeline would come to an end. But on the other hand, a truly free multiverse would not be able to exist without a Loom, and yet a Loom cannot support a multiverse. Knowing his options, Loki decided to find another way.
Having consulted Sylvie Laufeydottir and Mobius M. Mobius in different points in time, Loki made the difficult decision to ultimately break the Temporal Loom and make himself a living Loom in order to preserve the branches and free will. He Time Slipped back to before the Temporal Loom implosion and took himself into the Temporal Loom Chamber. Loki then used his telekinesis to break the Temporal Loom and using his magic, saved all of the branches. It was then that Loki took himself and the branches to the ruins of the Citadel at the End of Time and formed the ever growing branches into his own Loom, with him in the middle.
==Capabilities==
The Temporal Loom's main purpose was to refine the raw essence of time into a physical timeline, while also serving as a power generator, using time as the main power source for the TVA. However, one hidden function was that it served as a failsafe in case the Sacred Timeline branched too much. By overloading and consequently exploding, it would delete every divergent element, whether they are a person, structure or timeline, leaving only the Sacred Timeline intact, effectively serving as a giant multiversal Reset Charge.
