This is why I love oracle paths. MC actually has to think about his choice and find the optimum path. Unlike the other dumb novels, this is always logical and the mc always faces consequences for his decisions, temporary or otherwise. But an entire chapter dedicated to this discussion is a bit much.
Actually, I may not be super disappointed in the final choice. After seeing that these will change you at your very core, I started suspecting that the higher the tier, the more they might force you to focus on a single aspect at the expense... Like, they are so powerful that they drag you along. Instead, like a commenter has said - something like Myrtharian might actually boost him better than even those "powerful" ones.
