10 MORE Huge Revelations You Missed From Star Trek: Prodigy (Season 2)

Asencia, the Vindicator, had her twisted reasoning for all the death and destruction. The Loom were just out to eat. Wesley Crusher called them "cosmic scavengers [that fed] on dying timelines." Similar in function to the Reapers from Doctor Who, the Loom were a terrifying new addition to Star Trek lore.

At the end of The Fast and the Curious, as time was slowed to a halt, eerie, ghost-like tentacles passed through the door to Gwyn's quarters on the Voyager-A. The Loom weren't in luck as the Gwyn they were hunting was a hologram.

When we met them properly in The Devourer of All Things, Parts I & II, we learnt that if they wrapped their large tentacles around you, they could erase you from time. Ensign Middleton found that out… Sorry, Ensign Who?

Speaking of large, there was the Nazamon, giant sky creatures on Ovidia IV. That colony planet was a revelation in itself. It was home to a host of non-corporeal lifeforms, including Paxans, Medusans, and Calamarains who had undergone a biotransference process to experience corporeal existence.

The Paxans were the biggest surprise on that list. Typically, they were a bunch of xenophobes who had a history, generally refusing to be known by the rest of the galaxy.
