Ok, now i've just realized a problem, once i'm gone and the story has progressed without me, how do we get back into the said story, especially when the people who I was making my own plot line with are offline?

yeah that's a millennium problem
several thousand dollars to whoever solves it

more helpfully, for us who have multiple characters, we just go ahead and start another thing while we wait
right now I'm waiting for Darlit Glitch
also helpfully, you're waiting for someone who technically is online; Fractured and Host who were just online are accounts of the user who plays Hestia, so you basically just time-skip a little or not time-skip at all
