I believe it may be as such:

-Arrogant Man attempts to summon Chzo, fails, becomes the Prince
-Prince gives Word to cultists

-Chzo wants to take the pain of John DeFoe
-Trilby becomes the Guide by 'killing' John and destroying (most of) his soulbound objects

-Prince tells cultists to gather the DeFoe artifacts and Trilby
-Trilby's Mind-body-Soul are all broken at the end of Notes, but dies before Chzo can open the gate

-Mephistopholes killer becomes the Bridgekeeper by killing himself and irradiating the DeFore idol

-Theo is broken, becomes the New Prince, and the bridge is complete with the destruction of the house

With the paradox of the Man in Red, an infinite loop causes the events of DeFoe and Trilby to repeat endlessly in the world of Chzo, allowing him to grow with a limitless amount of pain.

That would explain that when the Bridgekeeper kills himself, he appears in the world of Chzo, facing the old Trilby clone and the New Prince, while giving life back to the original Trilby so he can send the DeFoe idol into space. The Old Trilby would have had to have been the last clone, considering the New Prince was there.

Chzo is as said, a Pain Elemental, which's only purpose is to accumulate pain. By creating this bridge between the worlds, and with the Bridgekeeper creating an infinite loop, Chzo would exist in endless bliss in a realm of pain he already had absolute dominion of, as he was the last.

And even after that, the rest of the world of Technology goes on while the Manor, Hotel, Optimology, and the Mephistopholes are isolated in time.
