theres still unanswered questions.
1. that judge was a teacher in 2018. She was under the impression she was with the TVA for way longer.
2. why did she leave? Did she have something to do with the TVA changing at the end? The TVA isn’t part of a timeline, but when Loki went back they didn’t remember him.
So I think Kang was locked in the void, and manipulated the TVA via miss minutes to get him out. He even said things needed to play out a certain way and run it’s course. And Loki said they “freed” the timeline. But in reality they freed Kang as well. And he also said, once the timelines are opened, he would be reborn in a new timeline anyway. He was trapped there.
there also seems to be rules. Just like Silvey figured out the TVA couldn’t detect her if she went to apocalypse events. So….
Maybe Kang figured out that if he’s killed at a specific point in time by a specific variant, things would be reset back to the multiverse of war before it was saved. And thus he knew he would be reincarnated.
But time passes differently in the TVA/Chronopolis. If you go back to Ant-Man's movie or even Endgame, Michelle Pfeiffer/Scott Lang we only in the quantumverse for a few hours...that few hours was half a decade. So Renslayer, who obviously has a story yet to be told may have been in 2018 before she was abducted by the TVA, but in the few years she went missing, it literally could have been been thousands of years based on how time passed for Michelle Pfeiffer/Scott Lang. Mobius himself said they knew each other for eons. If 5 hours equaled 5 years for Scott Lang, imagine how many hours converted to years that was for Renslayer.
As far as why she left, I think that will be established in Loki season 2. They didn't get into that. Ultimately, Renslayer is a love interest of Kang/Immortus. They only prune people who are capable of nexus events, changing the timeline. I don't think it's far-fetched to say Renslayer falls for a version of Kang and that's why she gets pulled into the TVA. Because her and Kang falling for each other obviously would be a major event in the sacred timeline.
I say all this to say Kang absolutely created the TVA. Just different versions of him operate it differently. Killing Immortus allowed another more malevolent version to take over. Hence the statue and Mobius/B-15 not knowing who Loki was when he returned.
The TVA are basically going to be his foot-soldiers in future movies.
The way they set this up is going to be wild. I guarantee you, Rama-Tut is going to try and prune Apocalypse which leads to the intervention of the X-Men. Black Knight and Doom are going to inevitably tie in. Fantastic Four are going to try stop him, and ultimately become "Fantastic " as a result. The implications are fukking wild.
This is literally one of the, if not thee most genius cinematic continuity event i have ever seen and we all will probably ever see.
Someone mentioned earlier in the thread the whole internet is talking about Kang, a villain no one even knows about outside of people who have been reading comics 30+ years, even me, who was a fukking comicbook nerd 20 years ago...and meanwhile the frigging Justice League can't even get off the ground. The shyt is genius. Absolutely, genius.
