Thor: Ragnarok
Warning : SPOILERS forLokiepisode 2
While Thor led the final survivor of Ragnarok out ofthe end of Asgard(and into further risk from Thanos , by accident),Lokiepisode 2 has expose that he did n’t in reality save all of his people . A file in the TVA ’s archive seems to affirm that thousands of Asgardians were still on the major planet when it was demolish by Surtur .
InThor : Ragnarok , Thor ’s people were put through unspeakable rigour by the return of Hela - thanks to Loki ’s machinations against his adopted father , Odin - with the despotic villain engage state of war against those who defied her . That saw the almost comically rough death of the Warriors Three as well as anyone still truehearted to Thor ’s ruler and was then compounded rather pointedly by Thor and Loki unleash Ragnarok as a substance to end her reign of holy terror . Surtur arrived and harry the planet , as Thor and the now homeless Asgardian survivor lead into place to find a new home . But not everyone made it .

InRagnarok , it unquestionably feels like Thor bring through everyone who was alive at the point ofSurtur ’s destruction of Asgard , especially as the dance orchestra of rebels protected by Heimdall seems so small . But the TVA file reveals that 9,719 Asgardians died when Surtur destroyed Asgard - as defined in the file as " total planetary demolition " . Interestingly , this leave no room for rendition around Hela ’s invasion , which was largely think to have kill off the Asgardians not see on concealment inRagnarok . With the stat confirm Ragnarok ’s fatalities , come the grim verification that Thor was forced to leave masses of Asgardians behind .
Even more worryingly , despiteRagnarok ’s affirmation - based on Odin ’s system of logic - that Asgard is not a property but a hoi polloi , that mean Thor had to select to save only a golden few thousand to take on the heart of Asgard . A rough estimation based on what is shown inThor : Ragnaroksuggests that figure to be3000 - 5000 or so surviving Asgardians , who were then swerve in half again by Thanos in the possibility ofInfinity War . The near 10,000 fatalities on Asgard did n’t even let in the total army place waste by Hela and her undead minions , which makes the whole state of affairs even more haunting .
What does n’t help that feeling is the monitor that Thor was forced to bring about Ragnarok himself , with the assistance of Loki in Odin ’s vault . Surtur ’s arrival was n’t an accidental evolution that he had to navigate to save as many people as he could , it was a calculated move designed to define Hela ’s end . The fact that Thor deemed 9,719 lives to be desirable of the toll perLoki ’s confirmation ( and Heimdall would have been able to separate him on the nose how many person were go out ) goes some way to explaining not only whyThor ’s mental health declination inEndgameis so pronounced , but may also be why he turned his back on posture on New Asgard ’s potty .
