Continuity and placement: After Season 5

"Raquel, it's painful for me to do this, but we must be in a long-distance relationship this time. The call to adventure is as important as my love for you."
"That's OK, darling. Our love has stood for five years now; and thanks to the latest innovations… we can be darn sure we can be this close even when we're far apart."
Those are the words that Arden Jethro Barretto and Raquel Bacaycay muttered to each other at the aftermath of the disbanding of The Only One Way religious cult.
While Raquel decided to stay in Splendido, Shurilesia – their hometown – Arden decided to join Jericho Helmstaedt and Claudine Rosales in their lives as adventurers roaming the entirety of Daig'digaia.
But no matter what, he promised – no, guaranteed – to have a secure long-distance relationship with her.
Current technologies allow for such a relationship to prosper, anyway.
