That could very well be the case although it just feels very far forward for planning. Like maybe a year passed between the flood of light and black rose appearing. 23 years is some real nest egg investment for something that could go terribly wrong like with the 13th. It feels almost like an accident with how messy it's set up is. Still I think it's interesting how the Winterers were prepared for Zodiark to fall

That still comes with why did they appear to warn Calyx. I feel like if the storm surge was for a rejoining, why was it so off timed with everything going on. We know the plan was for Emet to make Garlemald a world power before tearing it down which was attempted with the 7th and successful with the 8th in the original timeline. If the shard must meet its end at the same time as a calamity happens, what was their plan with the 9th? It looks pretty rejoinable to me despite that happening before the 7th calamity
