Personally my theory is that Helheim was an ancient Forrest/alternate dimension and Yggdrasil somehow found out about the ancient forest and reconstructed the city of Zawame just so they could get their hands on it's secrets/find out how to use it for their own gain. Which is why they took the Sacred tree, tore down the shrine, and hid the tree in their labs. But the company was blinded by their own greed(desire for knowledge, for power, etc.) that they disturbed the balance and without the summer festival at the shrine possibly helping keep the barrier strong, that lead to cracks opening up and the need to create weapons to fight the inves.

As for what I think Mitchi might of saw, either a burning crater filled with the original inhabitants of Helheim, or maybe the burning remains of another city that had an access point to Helheim like Zawame, except this one failed and was dragged into Helheim itself.

Besides wouldn't it be deliciously ironic to find out that the guys totting that 'the ends justify the means' ended up being the whole reason they need to go to such extremes to save humanity in the first place. Hard to justify that mindset when it was the very mindset that cause humanity to be in danger in the first place.

1.first of all don't forget that yggdrasil are artificially forcing the crack to remain open

2.as for your theory of what mitchi saw youre theory and the one that he sees the battlefield from episode 1 could be the same thing (on a side note that might shed light on this question and the theory-are they any lost city stories(you know like atlantis) from norse mythology or japanese mythology that could possibly match the theory of bieng dragged into Helheim?)
