A message in a bottle to the Convocation is so much worse in such fundamental ways that I'm not sure you understand how anything works. Because the timeline split wouldn't be 'Nabriales looked at a crystal', that's not the thing that changed: it would be 'the WoL put a memory crystal in the mail'. By making and leaving the crystal, you would by nature be stranding yourself.

And not only that, you would be stranding yourself in an effort that makes the problem worse. There's a reason Venat doesn't tell them.
Not sure how I understood redheadturk but anyway I think he means to somehow chuck it into the Aetherial Sea while time magics are on it? Though I do think he suggested at one point to make one around the time we're finishing up with Pandeamonium. You know make a memory crystal and "accidentally" drop it as you say goodbye to Elidibus and Lahabrea while the WoL is still in the past. Have the WoL fringe ignorance if either of them notice we dropped something. We know the briefing about Pandeamonium happens some time before the Final Days so they would be able to be slightly warned ahead of time. Not that I like Lahabrea, but if he is able to kill his wife and keep it a secret from the rest of the Convocation I'm sure he'd be able to use some tact if he saw/heard what was on the crystal. Elidibus also probably would know how to be smart about what's on the memory crystal.
