Loki: Is this the end of the TVA?

In the latest episode of Loki, titled "Heart of the TVA," the Time Variance Authority (TVA) faces a dire threat as multiple branching timelines emerge, overloading the Temporal Loom. Despite their efforts, the TVA fails to repair the device in time, resulting in its collapse and the impending doom of everyone inside. However, we know that the characters are not actually dead, as the show still has two episodes left. The question is, where are they now?The episode begins with a revelation for Ravonna at the Citadel at the End of Time. Miss Minutes shows her a projection that reveals her past conversation with He Who Remains. Ravonna had been completely unaware of this memory being erased by He Who Remains, further highlighting his manipulation of the TVA. Ravonna decides to team up with Miss Minutes to take control of the TVA, while the rest of the TVA members continue their attempts to fix the Temporal Loom.Meanwhile, Loki and Sylvie search for Victor Timely, who had been captured by Ravonna and Miss Minutes. They eventually find him and are able to save him, but their collective efforts may have been in vain as the temporal radiation proves too much for Timely to fix the Loom.The episode delves into the relationship between Sylvie and Loki as they have a conversation about their differing perspectives on the TVA. Sylvie believes in burning it down and starting anew, while Loki believes in fixing what is broken. This conversation highlights the ideological divide between them and sets the stage for the upcoming events.The episode ends with a massive cliff-hanger as a blinding light consumes Loki and the rest of the TVA. It is unclear where they are now or if there even is a TVA to return to. The concept of the Ouroboros, representing the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, is a recurring theme in the season. It is possible that the characters may find themselves in the Void, a place beyond the Sacred Timeline, as the light resembles the pruning phenomenon that sends variants there.With only two episodes left, Loki has the opportunity to explore a multiverse freed from the constraints of a Sacred Timeline. Sylvie's wish for the TVA to be burned down has seemingly been granted, but
