We already started on clearing the Thenn-graves in the North and we have to counter Asmodeus agents in Slaver's Bay.

Okay, I think what Dany's been doing should propably get her some street-cred, so consider this Path ability:
Aside from that, I like it.
But she should really take Mythic Spell Lore as the feat on her next Tier. All those mythic mages without mythic spells...

That is weird. I'm not a huge fan.
It magically makes you famous (this isn't background developed by DP, it's us selecting an option and reality shifting).
Oh, and it's mechanically very weak.

I don't see how we're going to have the time for most of these. Not only is there cleaning up after the Golden Company in general, we're also going to be hunting whichever agents are in our reach. For one thing, capturing every Tiamat Drake that we can.

pretty sure cleanup was implied to be done by the preperation team but whatever

That too, people are planning ahead a bit too much here.
The preparation team can't handle hunting down each and every fled agent on their own, dude. That's a lot of Plane Shifting and Discern Locations.

The "preparation team" was assigned to this, they'll keep on it for the remainder of the month.
The rest of minions/Companions all go back to their tasks after the fight itself is over.
Those are pretty damn important, too.
Viserys, though, will largely go about doing social MAs after the targets of priority (Mindblanked dragons, any clerics that escaped) are dealt with.
Makes perfect sense to me, tbh.
The adventure-like actions were slapped there only because "well, maybe we will finish clean-up sooner than expected".
I'm not arguing for doing them at all right here and now, or anything.

Then we're going to have to accept some of the missing agents permanently vanishing much in the same way that the Red Abishai did when it ran away from us, that's really all there is too it. The preparation team doesn't have the spell slots to pursue all of them on their own, much less the firepower to deal with whatever other traps there might be in the Shadow Plane.

Honestly, why the fuck not, that is okay.
I have long dealt with my SoD on the matter of us achieving improbable victories.
We can't get all of them reasonably, and yes, I consider sacrificing other projects for this as "unreasonable".
So I'll settle on the Dragons.
...and trying to push thread to making WoE into a Timmie-radar, to scry on all empowered by her, but later.

Who all was on the prep team?
I know Dany was one of them. She just got two Mythic ranks, which comes with seven Mythic Power. That means she can use Inspired Spell to cast Greater Plane Shift without preparation, along with Greater Scrying, Discern Location, etc.
Her people will be able to hunt down stragglers very effectively.

I don't actually care, I was under the impression that you were obsessed with this.
I got what I wanted out of this encounter already.

Teana will need to get back to the Scholarium, but the others, maybe augmented by another Mind Dragon or some Erinyes, should be able to hunt down stragglers and runners quite well.
Anyhow, when it comes to priorities we really need to get the human followers of Tiamat, not the dragons.
Humans are the ones who actually do the fanatical worship thing, or for that matter the ones who feel the need to make pacts to get power right now. Dragons are predictably selfish and will do as little to help Tiamat as they can possibly get away with, including outright ditching her and going off to get a nice lair somewhere, since if they want ultimate cosmic power all they have to do is age and Tiamat is bad for your life expectancy.

well the drakes have the problem of being prismatically charged by Tiamat and needing to mages and magic items for food, we are not letting them eat our loot
They are also dumb as a bag of rocks. They won't be a problem unless someone controls them, and that someone would probably be a human who we must hunt down.

well if noone controls them they will attack the nearest magic locaion to eat it and they can do a lot of damage with their breath weapon

And the Mindblanked humans we cannot scry directly by the power in the Well of Eternity.
We'll see if we could scry her Clerics, but Wizards using items for Mundblank are a no-go.
Ergo, we'll hunt down what we can, and there is little point to bother worrying about Wizards whom we cannot.
It isn't like they will be as fanatical and cult-starting as the Clerics, anyway.
...that is, if anyone Mindblanked did get away.
We had a fairly large force of assassins sent out, for whom working we had yet to see the results.

Take into account what we are missing out on though.
For example, last month we scratched at Asmodeus operations in Slaver's Bay, but we didn't get any of the serious players.
I'll bet that he is stepping up his game right now, to get results before we can apply sufficient force to push them out.
Or the grave up north, there were dozens of Wildlings standing around it when the party there had to leave, if they do something stupid like breaking down the last wards they might unleash ancient evil on the Thenn.
Sure but that's not our problem. If a wild magic beast rampages around in Yi Ti, that's Yi Ti's problem. We can totally fix it for the PR or to get the Drakes for our own use, but it's exactly our obligation to do it.

Oh, okay.
Then we happily agree to part ways once the slaying and looting right here are done?
