Where Is Ravonna Renslayer In The Finale & Why Does It Matter?
In the “Loki” Season 2 finale, Ravonna Renslayer sits at the end of time inside the Void — there’s a pyramid off in the distance, and a mysterious purple glow shining on her. The ancient Egyptian structure’s inclusion seems to be very intentional. In the comics, the first variant of Kang the Conqueror, Pharaoh Rama-Tut, rules the nation before sparring with the Avengers. In the recent “Kang the Conqueror” miniseries (by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Carlos Magno), Nathaniel Richards, who becomes Kang, goes back in time and interacts with the older version of himself. There, he encounters Renslayer, who has taken on the mantle of Moon Knight.
Ultimately, Renslayer and Richards fall in love – as they have in many different timelines — and attempt to overthrow Rama-Tut. Unfortunately, Richards’ violence and his excessive attachment to Renslayer causes her to leave him and destroy his idea of what love can be — one of the significant moments on his path to becoming a supervillain. With rumors that Rama-Tut, who appears in the post-credit scene in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” may be the big villain of an unconfirmed “Moon Knight” Season 2, Marvel may be setting up a similar plot to the comic book storyline.
