[The elderly actor portraying Odin made his grand entrance onto the stage.]
["And just like that! Loki succumbed to his grievous wounds and sacrificed his precious life heroically! He bravely fought against those evil elves and brought lasting peace to our world!"]
[A young child with skin painted blue walked out from the side of the stage to represent Loki's origins.]
["Loki! My beloved child! Many years ago, on the brutal battlefield of Jotunheim! When I discovered you abandoned there, I could never have foreseen that you would become the savior of all Asgard!"]
["Back then you were merely a blue-skinned frost giant infant! But you melted the heart of this old fool!"]
[As the theatrical performance concluded, the Asgardian citizens who had been watching applauded enthusiastically and cheered with genuine emotion. Loki, maintaining his disguise as Odin, even rose from his seat and applauded continuously with apparent satisfaction.]
["Magnificent! Absolutely magnificent! A truly incomparable performance!"]
[The actors stood and bowed gracefully to their appreciative audience.]
"What in the nine realms is this abomination?!" Thor frowned deeply with confusion and outrage. He had never witnessed such a spectacle before, so he couldn't comprehend when this historical revision had occurred!
Tony spread his hands with analytical clarity: "Based on the theatrical content, we can observe that Loki supposedly sacrificed himself! And Odin appears to have some serious issues. Did Loki somehow escape from your prison?"
Thor shook his head with absolute certainty.
"Absolutely not! Loki has been securely imprisoned in Asgard the entire time! He has never left his cell! I can guarantee that with complete confidence!"
"Moreover, I can be absolutely certain of this! That figure is definitely not my father! It must be Loki in disguise!"
Thor might be impulsive in action, but that didn't mean he lacked intelligence. Loki's acting abilities might be sufficient to deceive others, but they were inadequate to fool his own brother!
Tony held up his index finger with tactical insight.
"And... what exactly do you mean by 'evil elves'? Are they referring to the Dark Elves?"
"Precisely! I don't believe any other elven race could be characterized as evil!"
"That's quite intriguing! It suggests there are events occurring that we don't know about! I'm referring specifically to the Dark Elves' invasion of New York!"
Thor narrowed his eyes with growing concern: "What exactly are you implying?"
"Exactly! Do you remember when the Sky Screen provided you with that warning about Jane?"
"Of course! If it weren't for the Sky Screen's intervention, I wouldn't dare imagine what catastrophic consequences Jane would have faced after the Aether particles - no, the Reality Stone - invaded her body!"
"I believe the Sky Screen's timely reminder actually secretly altered the timeline! That's why you didn't experience Loki's supposed death!"
Thor considered this theory and found that Tony's analysis made logical sense.
[The narrator's voice suddenly interjected: "Do you want to know what was originally supposed to happen, Thor?"]
Thor raised his head and responded loudly: "Yes! Show me!"
The scene transitioned to display the events of Thor: The Dark World, where Thor discovered Jane Foster possessed by the Aether and made the decision to transport her back to Asgard for safety.
[Subsequently, Algrim deliberately allowed himself to be captured and brought to Asgard's dungeons. He crushed the Cursed Stone and underwent transformation into a Cursed Warrior, releasing numerous dangerous prisoners and creating widespread chaos.]
[Following this, Algrim made eye contact with Loki within his cell but chose not to release him. However, Loki found the situation quite amusing and took the initiative to provide helpful directions.]
["I think you should take the staircase on the left!"]
[Algrim turned his head to acknowledge him, then proceeded in the suggested direction.]
[Thor sensed that something had gone terribly wrong in the prison and worried about Loki's safety. Frigga assured him that he could leave without concern and that she would personally protect Jane.]
["Loki's mischievous nature cost him the heaviest price imaginable, and Thor's absence made him torment himself for not being present when his mother needed him most!"]
"What?!! Mother?!!" The narration immediately triggered Thor's deepest alarm bells and fears.
Tony placed a restraining hand on him: "Don't panic! This should represent the original timeline! Have you forgotten? The Dark Elves never actually attacked Asgard!"
"Right! Yes! Mother is safe! Damn that Loki!" Thor lowered his head, realizing that he hadn't properly "disciplined" Loki in quite some time, and resolved to visit him immediately after returning to Asgard.
In his prison cell, Loki, who had been reclining leisurely on his couch, couldn't suppress his urge to stand. The Sky Screen's words filled him with profound unease, compelling him to pace anxiously around his confined space.
He had never encountered a Dark Elf before. After hearing the Sky Screen's ominous words, he couldn't resist looking out to determine if there was any Algrim among the prisoners in the surrounding cells.
[Thor rushed urgently toward the prison complex, while simultaneously Malekith arrived at Frigga's private chambers.]
[Frigga raised her ceremonial dagger defensively and warned: "Advance no further! I can spare your miserable life!"]
[Malekith dismissed her threat entirely: "You can do nothing to stop me, woman!"]
[Frigga demanded: "Who are you?"]
["I am Malekith! I have come to reclaim what rightfully belongs to me!"]
[Frigga turned her head to glance at Jane Foster positioned behind her, realizing that the intruder was targeting her specifically.]
[Malekith ignored Frigga's presence and walked directly toward Jane with determined purpose.]
[Frigga struck Malekith with her blade in a swift attack.]
[The wounded Malekith immediately became cautious and drew his own sword, stabbing toward her.]
[However, Frigga skillfully deflected his weapon and struck Malekith in the abdomen with a devastating backhand blow.]
Malekith had never imagined that he would suffer defeat at the hands of any woman.
[Enraged by this humiliation, he swung his fist toward Frigga, but was systematically beaten back by her superior combat techniques.]
[Frigga quickly gained the tactical advantage and even positioned her dagger against Malekith's throat.]
[At this critical moment, the Cursed Warrior Algrim located Frigga's chambers following Loki's unwitting guidance.]
[Frigga detected the approaching threat and decisively swung her sword to attack Algrim, but the immensely powerful Cursed Warrior grasped her arm and lifted her by the throat.]
[Observing that Algrim had successfully subdued Frigga, Malekith once again approached Jane Foster, who was hiding nearby.]
["You have taken what is mine! Child! Return it to me immediately!"]
[Jane Foster stood frozen as if paralyzed by terror, watching Malekith's menacing approach.
Malekith extended his hand toward her, but the moment Jane was touched, she transformed into pure light and vanished completely.]
[It was revealed that after Frigga realized she could not match Algrim's strength, she had decisively used advanced magic to conceal Jane Foster from detection.]
[Her magical expertise was so sophisticated that even Algrim hadn't noticed when she completed this protective enchantment.]
[Malekith observed Jane's disappearance and immediately understood that the woman behind him was responsible for this interference.]
[Frigga smiled faintly at the furious Malekith, showing no concern for her own precarious situation.]
[Malekith approached her and demanded: "Where is the Aether?"]
[Frigga's expression remained resolute and unchanged: "I will never tell you!"]
[Malekith nodded with cold acceptance: "I believe that completely!"]
[Algrim thrust Frigga's own dagger into her body without hesitation, causing her to display an expression of profound anguish.]
