Those of you who read Marvel's comics will surely knows several details of the Norse Mythology. Well, I know several of them and I believe I just discovered some clues about the current mysteries of Kingdom Hearts' past.   
  
As you already know, it has been recently revealed the identity of the Master who taught Eraqus, Xehanort and the 4 new character how to use the Keyblade. Not surprised at all, it turned out to be "Master Odin", following Nomura's fascination with Norse Mythology. (I honestly suspected it). Ater knowing this, I couldn't stop thinking "Now where we could find Thor and Loki?". That's when an idea hit my mind quite brutally.   
  
In Norse Mythology, Odin is one-eyed because he sacrified one os his eyes in exchange of eternal wisdom. So, how about if the famous "Gazing Eye" that appears in the "Evil Keyblades" (like Xehanort's one) is actually this "Master Odin's Eye". I know it wouldn't have much sense because the Master of Masters is from a time previous to Master Odin; but considering how intrigant this guy is, can we really believe he said the truth when he said it was HIS eye? Besides, weirder things has happened already. Even more, how about if this "Master of Masters" is actually "Loki"? Using Marvel as a reference, the Master of Masters acts in a similar intrigant and manipulative way than Loki's; and his "sin" could perfectly be "Superbia" ("Pride"), which perfectly matchs with Marvel's version of Loki.   
  
And speaking of Marvel, all these references to the Norse Mythology and the way "Kingdom Hearts 2020" trailer starts (mirroring the introduction of Marvel's latest films), could this be actually a signal that the MCU is preparing itself to appear in Kingdom Hearts? I would love it!

I think the Master of Masters was more meant to line up with Odin, I do take what he said about his eye as truth, but we'll have to see if the games explores that topic more. I really like the idea of him representing Loki  though!  If we're keeping with the Norse mythology theme, they both have trickster type personalities, never thought about it that way, but like you said the timeline wouldn't add up. 

As for the Norse mythology references hinting at Marvel in the future, I'm not so sure about that. It's common for video games and other media to draw from real life cultures and mythologies for their stories. That being said though as long as they can pull it off correctly I wouldn't mind Marvel in KH (though I'd prefer it just stay separate).

Something else came to mind. In "Dark Road", young Eraqus and Xehanort act quite similar to Sora and Riku; but I believe they could also represent (indirectly) Thor and Loki. I mean, Xehanort almost caused Ragnarok with his whole plot, after all.
