No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.

After the end of the first season of Loki and rembember some past titles, for example chronomancer, the AD&D sourcebook, I have thought about to add some details to the D&D cosmology for a better explanation of the multiverse with parallel worlds.
One of the concepts from my imagination is the idea of the akasha realm, a demiplane created by the collective memory, something like a mixture of theme park and a "cosmic backup" in the space-continium time. This could allow stories about time-travel but without headaches about time-paradoxes. Here the past can be explored but not altered. The weak point is the akasha realms show the past how this is remembered, but not how hapenned really. Then it is not the best way to discover secret conspiracies. Do you remember the novel "Tanis: the shadow years"?
Other suggestion is the "time spheres". These are like the crystal spheres from Spelljammer, but each time sphere is an alternate timeline or uchrony. This could explain alternate Krynns where in one Raitslin becomes the supreme and unique deity, other where the chaos war and the age of the mortal didn't start, or from the short story "There Is Another Shore, You Know, Upon the Other Side".
In my setting there is a good reason to forbid the time-travel even when the parallel timelines avoid the time paradoxes. The original ones, the "sacred" timelines aren't affected, but the timelines created by the alterations caused by the time-travelers are more vulnerable by the planar invasion from the Far Realm. Then the time spheres would fight for the "anchor", and the "losers" become a demiplane, maybe an "akasha realm", a domain of delight within the Feywild, or a dread domain. Other reason is Vecna, the god of the secrets. He doesn't like the secrets of the time-travelers and the rewritte of the timelines could be known. Some "time spheres" are created by the deities to punish some time-travelers, for example there is one where the secrets of the high-tech arrived too soon, when the civiliation weren't ready, causing a great damage (Terminator+Resident Evil+Altered Carbone = Eclipse Phase RPG), or a time sphere where high-tech is known and totally allowed but there is a curse with the no-magic firearms and the murders with these cause the return of the victims as angry ghots who wants revenge for a death without honor, or they can return with a ectoplasmatic copy of the weapon used for their death. One of the spheres would be Barovia where Strand is killed before become the first vampire, but the darklord is his brother Sergei, and suffering a planar invasion from the vampyres from other plane. The "Hollow World" from Mystara would be other example of "time sphere" or "akashic realm".
