Sean Under Surveillance (There'll Be Another Alliance Leader Bonus Chapter Later, Possibly a Bit Late)

Barring drastic changes, time would continue to unfold normally, along its different branches...

Those meant to exist would continue to exist, while those not meant to exist would vanish from the Timelines where they did not belong.
