Why

He journeyed to the farthest reaches of the galaxy, where civilizations clashed, and empires rose and fell. He navigated the treacherous currents of interstellar politics, always using his wisdom and power to guide those who were lost or in need. He discovered new worlds, each more beautiful and wondrous than the last, and brought their people back into the fold of the greater galactic community.

As he traveled, Matthew also continued to teach, for he had learned that knowledge was the most powerful weapon against ignorance and fear. He founded new schools and academies, training generations of students in the ancient arts of cultivation. His disciples spread out across the universe, carrying his teachings to every corner of creation, and in every place they went, peace and prosperity reigned supreme.

Through it all, Matthew never forgot the lessons Loki had taught him. He remained humble and kind, even in the face of great power. He was patient and understanding, always willing to listen to the concerns of others. And above all else, he was brave, standing up against tyranny and oppression whenever he encountered it.

Decades became centuries, and centuries became millennia, but Matthew's spirit never grew old or weary. He continued his journey, ever-driven by his insatiable curiosity and his unyielding sense of duty. And although he never saw Loki again, he knew that the god was always with him, guiding him from the shadows, offering advice and encouragement whenever he needed it.

As the universe spun on, Matthew's legend grew, and his influence became incalculable. He became known not just as a great cultivator, but as a wise sage and a peerless strategist. He was sought out by emperors and kings, by popes and priests, for his counsel and his guidance. And in every corner of creation, there were those who called themselves students of Matthew, who vowed to carry on his work and to keep his memory alive for generations to come.

In the end, Matthew did not live to see the end of time or the end of the universe. But it mattered little, for his spirit lived on, eternal and unbroken. He had left the world a better place than he had found it, and that was all that truly mattered. And so, he continued his journey, forever seeking new adventures and new challenges, forever seeking new worlds to explore and new lives to touch. And though he knew that one day he would finally join Loki in whatever realm awaited them both, he also knew that until that day came, there were still countless stories left to write and countless lives yet to change.
