The Canonical list of appearance?
So whether this is made aware of or not, there isn’t really much to go off of who Euden meets first other than the uniqueness of each adventurer appearing at any time. So I devised a possible list of who came to the Halidom:
-Vixel [1/3 time he meets Euden. Pre-Halidom]
-Pia [Before Halidom, take place in a town]
-Elias [The first visitor to the Halidom? Mentions the place is dusty...]
-Lucretia (These four appear before the main)
-Elisanne
-Ranzal
-Cleo
-Maribelle
-Luca
-Xania
-Aoi
-Ezelith
-Renelle
-Alain
-Zardin
-Rex
-Hildegarde
-Sophie
-Melody
-Joe
-Karl
-Estelle
-Malka
-Nicolas
-Roderigo
-Cibella
-Jurota
-Raemond
-Jakob
-Hope
-Malora
-Irfan
-Johanna
-Philia
-Waike
-Althemia
-Edward
-Linus
-Francesca
-Ricardt
-Ifran
-Taro
-Lily
-Vice
-Aeleen
-Erik
-Berserker
-Vanessa
-Vice
I have not read these stories yet as I was deciding from a narrative perspective rather than going straight in, so the list is a little crooked for now, but I’m certain on the main and Musicians.
Note: This list is going off of first appearance, so each chapter of an adventurer story should not be in consideration of being confined to a certain time frame, not in direct correlation to the former.
Edit: If it gets a little comprehensive I may add hints as to why I think they appeared at this time but not spoil the story/chapters too well.
Edit2: This is just the list for now. If you notice any other adventurers that appear in another’s stroy, please in the comments below point out any inconsistencies and I’ll update the list to better fit a more appropriate recording.
Edit3: While the main story may be more canonical than any adventurer story, I’m starting to question where Euden has been. I’m almost under the impression Euden has been to the Halidom before, retraced his steps, then found Ranzel before going to challenge the Windwyrm. But this has become speculation more than anything.

I don't know how you suppose the Resplendant Refrain gang come before the original cast when all events require you to finish Ch 2/2-1 which is when you meet Luca.
Plus, the prologue of RR sees Vixel walking up to the group (Euden, Eli, Ranzal, Cleo, Luca) and going "Hi, I'm Vixel," which is a very odd thing to say if he'd been there from the beginning.
Because Vixel is always on tour, he can’t constantly stay at the Halidom. For the prologue of RR, I suppose he met them beforehand and this is his 3rd time meeting, hence Euden on familiar terms with him.
With what info I could gather, Vixel met Euden for the first time when it was just Euden and Notte, then later a little bit, maybe chapter 3 or so since Vixel is constantly on tour, he met Euden’s friends, then RR takes place that same year in Winter. Euden is very friendly with the Alberian citizens and who knows what relations go on outside the visible story, so I’m merely speculating order of appearance, but that is why the adventurer stories give good insight into the timing and livelihoods of the adventurers.
I actually had a discussion on another post a while back asking people who have read the adventurer stories if they found out anything. One person in particular stated in Vixel’s story, Euden met Vixel before everyone else. During the Resplendent Refrain event, I did find Euden to be on good terms with Vixel, having just met. It was only after I talked with this person they think Vixel met Euden beforehand.
I could say something similar with Lucretia being tied to Elias’s story, but I don’t want to go too in-depth. I just know Elias, Lucretia and Vixel are all tied together in a forgiveness story of sorts. Pia’s appearance is a little stray, but by the way of Euden’s interactions, I assumed this is before Euden at the halidom because the setting is some town in Alberia, not the snow covered town we met the musicians in in the event.
While it just may be the fact the main weren’t featured in the story, it was the way Euden talked that felt really like when we first met him, not like “come on gang, we got this”. I checked the first chapter of Pia and he was like, soft-spoken and a little bit reclusive compared to now, I think.
There's nothing in Vixel's story that suggests he met Euden before RR. His story takes place after the event, with Ranzal basically going "Oh, that guy we met back in the snowy town?"
The first spoken dialogue in Pia's story is "All right, that does it for our errands. Time to get back to the castle," meaning the Halidom. The second chapter of her story is them practicing back at the castle when Cleo walks in.
Darn, then I guess that breaks that. I went off Pia’s first chapter in story, and when someone tried to describe Vixel’s story they said something more. But I forgot to mention an important thing about these stories, it’s that the chapters aren’t in sequence. Meaning the time in each chapter is different, and can take place in a week or months time from each other. So generally, I wanted this list to reflect the first meeting of each adventurer, not how their story continues, so your right on the next chapter showing the other adventurers like Cleo, but if going off the first chapter only, it’s possible to believe. And when Euden says “our” he could be talking about Notte, as there was no one else with him in Pia’s first chapter but him, Mr.Mouse and Pia.
Pia says her exam is coming up soon in that chapter. The end of her Episode 1 sees Euden saying "We should head home and start practicing." The second chapter begins "Several days after the prince and Pia begin practicing for their performance," followed shortly after by Cleo entering. I don't know how Euden could've left Alberia, met the main crew, lost his sister and set up in the Halidom in that time while still practicing for a little girl's recital.
