I'm buying that, but the role thingy is a bit weird. You're saying that May was destined to help Shadow defeat Titan? That's not what happened at all. May tag along with us as gems digger assistant to help us close the Gates. No one expect the Gates to pull her. And in fact, May in Act 7 has done anything but helping Shadow. She makes things worse; it's implied that she killed those Hideout fighters and then we have to pass her before we can face Titan. The only helping part is making Shadow realize that Titan existed, and that was Titan's work, not May's. And it's not like Shadow will care about Titan if May never kidnapped.

Back then, people actually believed that Corsair is the Pirate King (Wasp's father) and Emperor is the Prince of Ivory City (assassinated by Shogun). They are resurrected by Titan and they took their revenge on Wasp and Shogun, respectively, before claiming their most precious possessions (Wasp's fleet and Ivory City).
