the timeline is something like this:

lumian saved an old man that was a follower of the fool. kleins intuition told him that lumina would become important in the future so he marked him. cordu cults start setting up their rituals which bringst adams attention over. he notices the mark on lumian and writes out the plan to let amon replace termiborus and the hostel and vortex rituals.

as payment for all the suffering he sets lumian up as a candidate for CoD but he doesn't really care if he or medici end up being it

hmm makes sense, she gave them a proper place to connect to

Gregrace was a dual pathway god of death and door, imo she probably created Cheldaron by sealing off a part of the spirit world

what do you mean with enhancing their pathway?

she can look at his situation but I doubt she is watching 24/7. the darkness pathway can't split their conciousness like the 3 lotm pathways can most likely

the betrayal was because of the influence of pga, if klein was already the fool back then he could have interfered and grisha would have won over pga for good

what activated uniqueness?

hmm good point, adam still needed ince alive at this point, otherwise he could have interfered earlier and evernight probably knew that klein had 2 more resurections. maybe she gave megoose a bit of bad luck/ he wrote that the ritual would fail to interfere with the hangedman thought

hmm ince interfered with the communication to the other churches but did he also write that they forgot to pray to her? because if they did pray she let things play out they way they did because sending over an angel or a saint wouldn't take more then a minute

his mental state would be better but he still wants revenge and to get stronger so moving to backlund is inevitable. the goddess will send a revelation, maybe through arianna or dabomachie (the pope), to give klein the same blessed status and the freedom that comes with it that she gives [COI V2] Hela and to tell him that he should work mostly on his own because she knows thats the best way for him to grow.

once in backlund he will have a steady income from the church while still acting as a detective because thats the best way for him to digest the potion while also gaining connections amd get a feel for the city. he will still join gatherings, thought I am unsure if he will go to the braveheart bar and meet sharron (was it to buy a gun? I don't remember anymore). the slave trader fight will be easier because he can get a nighthawk team to help, he reports medici to the goddess but its questionable if she does something because he is important to adam and also by extension to her. the smog would still play out similer because kleins detective work is what leads it to happen early.

regarding moving out to sea, he will probably still do it, maybe evernight tells him to go find a free mermaid because she knows its important for him to gain knowlege of history and this is the fastest way seeing the aftermath of the battel of the gods

dwayne dantes probably still happens because he more openly interacts with the church compared to sherlock but obviously he doesn't need to break into chanis gate now. still the meeting with zaratul has to happen so she sends him there, maybe after waiting for pent and mr a to die because those 2 pose an unneccessary risk. zaratul still gets set free after their talk

the inze fight plays out the same because thats what the author wrote and after movibg back to backlund klein can go to the cathedral and study history from all the secret documents.

from there on things should play out the same

all things cinsidered, its just that kleins mental state is a bit better, he has a bit more money and he has better access to history through the secret records of the church

I am sure he will after the apocalypse

I wouldn't even call it a lack of talent, its just that the 2 pathways requier a different type of person to optimally function. Klein for example would have also been a horrible error if he had switched

before becoming a god he was a seq 2 sage from the hermit pathway, afterwards it took him a long time to digest the all 9 savant potions. then he was buisy protecting the barrier and most importanlty he was lacking the inspiration most likely. only in coi he gets the inspiration by witnessing the old civilisation in kleins dream

eh she just doesn't like her dad, she gets along great with her brother/cousin and some other members that get introduced in season 3

what? that test has nothing to do with what I meant. She is a princess because she is the daughter of a named clan leader, like Loulan and Lishu. Standing wise she is higher then Gyokuyou before she became a consort.

what ambitions are you talking about?

in this world quite a lot looking at what the 2 previous empresses did (if jinshi actually ends up becoming emperor), otherwise she still has many options if they end up together and he stays a backup for his little brother. The empire favors capable people, thats how the clans came to be and also why some of them lost their names when they became incompetent

she often says throughout the story that she has no right to talk to people/be in their presence because she is just a commoner when she actually is a member of one of the most important clans to the emperor. Also, being a member of the La clan means she is far from a tool and the people that matter know it. even by just going with the people already introduced in the anime we have

Lakan, the countries best military strategist,

Loumen, one of the best doctors in the country

Lahan, one of the best with numbers

Maomao, great apothecary that saved the lives of the princess, empress and a consourt while also proving incredibly usefull in other aspects

even with prelatis help there is no way Shiro has enough mana for Medusa to properly fight sadly. regarding the rest of them, I don't see any of them winning against archer herc with a competent master like rin. Its questionable if Medea would work with Prelati. kojiro is just out of his league as a berserker, caster emiya is a joke, cu as a rider is questionable and lancer artoria is probably hercs biggest competition here

her position isn't an issue thought, she just doesn't want to acknowledge that she is the princess of the La clan lol

no they got to keep them away because their bodies would destroy the world and because they want to take the uniquenesses and seq 1 characteristics of most pathways away

he was never an official member, I am not even sure if any of the higher ups that are responsible for the bible knew about him

fair enough

no those 3 are accounted for (the one she has reserved for advancement, the leader of the royal faction of the Numinous Episcopate and one of bernadets sealed artifacts

yeah but thats way later

kind of funny that it calls them archangels despite her not having any

from hell in a city gives him the stats of a martial servant like saber so even if he isn't at her level he is quite close. its not just an army thats facing her down, its 200 strong martial class servants
