Wohoooooooo let's goooo
Oh this will be a thread where your head will explode a bit. Can't wait.

- "I am really thinking thats a typo that's never been corrected to Lonely"
Same. Or a reference to the fact that Zayne is a long boi. idk

OK, I'm about to hit you with a big Zayne Timeline covering the years from his birth to the moment he meets MC again once she becomes a hunter. Everything is covered in his anecdote "Never-Ending Winter", his bonds, Main Story, and the TimeLock Key event during Death&Rebirth (where you had the text accompanying images. The last chapter of the timelock key refers to the fractal library, which references his limited myth. Zayne's timelock key is here)

Grandma officially introduces Zayne to MC after she adopts her.] Summer - He almost kills MC - He starts having dreams of Dawnbreaker. (13 after September, so when the accident with MC happens he's still 12). They visit the zoo, then he moves away. ((MC is 7-8))

2040 (19) Dr. Noah says the university's cafeteria was renovated - Ghost in the office (Zayne in the laboratory researching protocores applied to cardiac surgery). "I don't want to be incapable of doing anything again when I become a threat to her." A few days later Zayne destroys what he discovered and all that led to it and leaves the research group. 40th

2047 (26) 47th -- He meets Dr.Noah and they attend the first year medical student oath ceremony. Noah asks him if he's visited her yet, he says no.
2048 CURRENT TIME (Zayne age 27) Zayne becomes MC's doctor since Dr.Noah is retiring (we'll meet him at his home up in the mountains during the main story)
MC accidentally meets Zayne (Bond: A frozen Promise)
6 months later MC becomes a Hunter, MAIN STORY STARTS

Unclear date: When William's girlfriend visits Zayne and asks him to say hi to Dr.Noah. It should technically be around 2043 or 2044 because when he receives his award in 2046 (Anecdote), he places it next to William's badge that his girlfriend had given him (World Underneath). But even though she talks like he's going to attend the first-year student's oath that same year, we only get the narration of him meeting Dr.Noah at the oath in 2047.

- "leave the group too"
I took it to mean that not only Zayne had destroyed his part of the research, but he's also leaving the research group entirely.

- "why would Zayne destroy any data?"
Because of what he found. The results were impossible to accept, and he destroyed the evidence.

The Timelock Key event is useful to see what happens when he was 12, the aftermath and his path moving forward, what happens when he reaches a breakthrough in his research during university, then once he becomes a doctor. The last chapter is about the fractal library and as I was saying, it references his limited myth. It 's important to understand protocore syndrome though, or at least the part about the black crystals growing out of the body.
