We've had this discussion in the past and I think the last time it happened I sided with the idea that Kai would be the main character.
The show would start as Kai is drifting into Colhen looking for work in the Crimson Blades, where Lann and Fiona are already employed. Later Evie would be recruited around where the Anile events take place to investigate the destroyed town, and then later Karok would show up in the prairie. After that, we'd go a little while without meeting new characters until the group makes it to Ortel, where we meet Hurk, the last remaining soldier who chose not to drink the koolaid. They'd meet Hurk fighting Ingkells and later recruit him to the blades so that Riordan doesn't find out he was with Ingkells' army.
A some point Arisha and Lynn would join in too, but I don't have a good point for them to hop in, Vella would show up at the beginning of Malina as an ex pirate or something.
Kai would be a good fit for MC because he's older and I think it would feel less like a shounen.
All I see would be ship wars...
Not to mention the impending waifu/husbando apocalypse to follow.
