Seth, (incarnation of a kin?), created Krill, Meta, Pale and Irene (and 8 others). So, do Ghoal children just grow up really fast, or is Seth older than he looks? He looks twenty-ish, but so does Meta and Pale. Odd. It isn't clarified so it's possible that Seth's clones had accelerated growth, but Meta's been established in the Muzzle booklet to have been born in BT 022 so she definitely went through 20 years of life. Same with Irina being born in EC 004.

Seth is likely older than he looks. It wouldn't be the first time a character who looks like they're in their 20s is actually in their 40s or 60s. Prim has also demonstrated that magic can be used to make one retain a youthful appearance despite age.

I can't say for certain if he's one of the god kin as it's Irina's speculation, though it is a specific example that's fairly believable imo.

The plot's getting odd. So Seth, being a HER, tries to destroy the world by first killing all the sinners, then manipulating Nemesis into literally destroying the world; while Irene tries to gather the vessels to screw Elluka, then wants kids and turns into MA (guess that explains Nemesis) but seemingly also wants to destroy the demons...?; meanwhile Elluka is the ringleader of the demons and is trying to gather the vessels for... reasons. Meanwhile all the four gods and masters have their own ideas, plans and plots. Oi!

I have a lot of problems with your rundown:

1) Seth's plans/ambitions are unknown. No mention whether he's trying to destroy the world.

2) His vessel has been used by many people for various purposes, several of them being outside of his control (Carlos). The Demon of Wrath's power is the most convenient for trying to kill a contractor because it can be used even without being contracted yourself.

3) We have no confirmation or denial that Nemesis was still possessed by the Demon of Wrath post-Leviantan Civil War. In fact, SCP is possibly pointing to the other Hellish as being the one who has the key. Who knows what's happening with Nemesis at that point.

4) We can't say what Ma's final goals are since we lack information on her state of mind any time after. There's a lot of missing factors there to cover in 300 years.

5) The "ringleader of the demons" is being taken out of context of an entire novel. I wouldn't focus on that point until I actually translate most of this book over the next month or so.
