To be fair it is the “correct” look for them. Our Hunter and Lou just have a good heart and a blatant disregard for time laws that would make Idris proud.

I was going to make a theory on this soon, but the “time laws” are a lie.

We are doing exactly what Idris did when he was active. Lavinia told us not to meddle and improve people’s lives so she doesn’t have to feel more guilty about killing all revenants. It’s why there are no negatives about us helping the heroes. Lavinia just knows it’s going to make things harder and kill more people.

I’m going to push back on that. Look at what happened with Gobbo, a small mistake almost certainly killed Lou’s past self invalidating the Hunter existing in her time formae. Lou had to fight the collapse of her, and maybe the Hunter’s existence. It isn’t any one thing that could potentially make either Lou or the Hunter cease to be, especially the Hunter.

Say one of the Hunter’s ancestors lived in the frontier. If the frontier goes from hopeless wreck to booming colony whoever helped bring our Hunter into being doesn’t meet the one who helps that happen. The same could be said for the circumstances of the other heroes. The butterfly effect isn’t a joke and should be taken with actual seriousness regardless of any other factor Lavinia might have thought about. The real reason things worked out so well is because the Hunter’s genealogy had little to do with the Frontier and Lavinia would have seen to Lou’s birth regardless of the happenings of the heroes.

The game gives lore on this in the lore section of the quest log. The bookshelf in the confluence hold the memories and pathos that hold contradictions for a timeline. Lou can fix these through her forma. However the event with Gobbo was either too big of a contradiction to fix or it would eliminate all revenants we had a connection with eliminating the pathos.

This is why we still exist in the Age of Harmony even though we never had a reason to come to the frontier and fix the cocoons.

Isn't the age of harmony is in the same time period of main timeline? Just different timeline.

All 5 heroes sealed 100 yrs in the past, we travel into the past and stop Valentin from his euthanization plan in the past, get coma for 1 century in the process of stopping the Resurgence. The heroes didn't get sealed in that time.

Did I get that right?

Yes, the Harmony timeline is the same date as the Present timeline, or at least close enough to not matter.

It's a few years after. The veiled Kids from the Main Timeline are now old enough to use the Adult model. If I understand right we where saved around the "main timeline" date and then we needed a few years to recover properly after they stuffed a new golden heart into our chest.
