    Protecting their reality (the prime timeline) from the Loom is the main source of urgency right? That’s why they needed to get the Protostar to the right place, to protect the present.

    Which creates the chilling thought that the “future” with Solum’s civil war would be consumed by the Loom.

      Right, but they’ve engineered a “present” in which Gwyn shouldn’t exist, which is exactly what they spent the bulk of the season trying to avoid, down to her having to wear the armband to stabilize her.

      IDK, at best I think it’s way messier than he should be.
