Hopefully you've seen Thor: The Dark World. If not, you probably shouldn't read any of this as there are references to some pretty big spoilers.
This is written with the idea that it would be shown as an end-credits teaser in a film that is one or two movies before Thor: Ragnarok (obviously this won't ever happen, though). Odin's whereabouts are still unknown, as well as, for the most part, Loki's secret. He has revealed himself to a select few trustworthy subordinates (one of which is "Norn", a character that I made up and has nothing to do with The Fates) and is using them to help him prepare for his plan-whether that plan be Ragnarok itself or just mass destruction to ruin Thor's day (that then accidentally turns into Ragnarok). Heimdall has either gone the way of Odin or is simply not around during this scene (perhaps Loki put him to sleep for a little while, or tricked him into going elsewhere); Norn is his replacement during his absence. *Note (MAJOR SPOILER for Avengers: Age of Ultron): The male spirit that comes up to Loki is the soul of Pietro/Quicksilver.*
I hope you enjoy what follows (feedback is welcome!) and, GOD willing, maybe we'll see Hela get introduced in a somewhat similar fashion - if not, let's hope she gets introduced at all!
