Deck of Many Things route is fixed, on both of my runs I planned it so I run into it on 17 Deep Spring just east of Crookspur.

Yeah I have figured it out after creating another test character with fully explored world map from Berath's blessing. Now I can easily pinpoint Deck of Many Things 27/5.

Now I consider another route. I can start Maje > Sandswept Ruins > Deadlight > Dunnage or just sail straight to Neketaka from Port Maje and met Thaenic right before the port of the city. Then I could buy slippers and do Arkemyr's Mansion for Cabalist's Gamebson and abuse the trick to literally loot & steal everything in the city, do all quests without loosing presious time in stealth mode in old city and hanging sepluchers.

Then go to Hasongo and have more time to do what must be done for Scordeo's Edge and Current's Rush before even confronting lava dragon. I guess it's all will be try and error. I want to test something new. I could just copy one of most popular runs with skaen/bm.

I just tested that I can go from Port Maje straight to Neketaka and met Thaenic on the way, buy slippers. Just did some stuff in Queen's Berth and Periki - including Arkemyr's Manor. Still 21 days for Neketaka/Hasongo.

I can use barrels to trigger invisibility and then prolongue it with Cabalist's Gambeson I already have with proper enchantment. Now I can easily do any quest in Neketaka, robe and steal anything, explore entire old city and hanging sepulchers without stealth mode. I will do the quest with Rymrgand as the last. Then I should buy voyager and some helpful stuff for sailing speed, go to Hasongo and later catch Thaenic one more time to buy  Magran's Chosen Belt, jester cap, another pair of boots for dex immunity. I don't remember how much money can be gathered in Neketaka alone, but should be enough for the ship and some of its upgrades.
