2012.
📍Gobi Desert, Mongolia.

The harsh streaks of sunlight had me closing my eyes back as a groan escaped me. I laid there for a few seconds before trying again.

Hot wind moved my hair as I sat up in the hot sand, spitting out the sand in my mouth. I looked around to find miles and miles of golden desert sand around me.

Great. Where and when the fuck am I now?

I took another look around me, pausing when I saw it. Or him.

My heart skipped and a gasp escaped me as I scrambled to my feet, stumbling towards him. It was impossible. I have to be hallucinating. He had to be a mirage or something.

But he was real. He was here, gesticulating and flaying his hands around.

"—nd I am burdened with glorious purpose." I heard him declare as I stumbled to a stop.

It was then I realized there were people in front of him. They blinked up at him, clearly not understanding what he just said. They spoke between themselves before turning to him, I knew they were asking questions.

I stepped forward, catching his eye and he turned to me. Recognition flashed in his eyes and he tilted his head in question.

"You—you're real." Tears gathered in my eyes as I stepped forward.

He frowned in confusion. "I—"

A loud warbling sound had us both turning. "Never mind."

A couple of armed men walked out, clad in black uniforms. And a stick. Really, a stick. What are they going to do, whack us with it?

"Don't touch that." Loki yelled, storming towards them. They pointed the glowing end of their sticks at us, making me really confused.

Before I could ask questions, another door appeared, and this time a woman steps out.

"Appears to be a standard sequence violation." She muttered as she pulled out a device. "Branch is growing at a stable rate and slope."

"Variants identified." She said as she locked her gaze on me and Loki.

"I'm sorry, what?"

"I beg your pardon." Loki asked in a more polite way.

"On behalf of the Time Variance Authority, I hereby arrest you for crimes against the Sacred Timeline."

A/N: Wow, wow, wow, wow. Wow. I don't actually know what to say. I can't believe we've come to the end of this book.

I can't even believe I came this far, I mean 10k reads on The Golden Daughter? I still can't believe it, I just took a big leap of faith last year and decided to post the first part of book one and now it has thousands of reads.

Thank you to everyone that came this far with me. Thanks to the silent readers, thanks to the constant voters, thanks for not giving up on this book during my five months break. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

About this 'Loki' part of the story, I don't know where it's headed yet. All I know is, it's gonna happen, when? I don't know but it's gonna happen. Right now I'm focusing- well trying to, on my other work in progress, Liv's story. It's coming along slowly but surely.

Anyways, thank you once again for sticking till the end. See you when I see you. Until then, feel free to ask any questions that's bothering you about this series and I'll try my best to answer. Maybe not immediately but eventually.

Okay! I think I've said enough. Bye!!
