Retraining generally takes a week of downtime. And you have to have found someone to pay to help you retrain. In some Adventure Paths (APs) there is enough downtime to actually make this viable (I'm looking at you, KingMaker, which had months of downtime). I'm not really seeing enough downtime in Wrath of the Righteous (WotR) to make this work.
Here is what I propose:
The PC makes a declaration to the GM/table that they plan to retrain out of X and retrain into Y.
Immediately, they lose X.
After a week of in-game time, they make a skill check (generally the DC of which is the Hard DC for the level of Y):
Critical Success: They can immediately begin using Y with no penalties
Success: They can immediately begin using Y, but with a -2 Retraining penalty related to using Y. This penalty goes away after one week of in-game time.
Failure: You still have lost X, and can immediately start a new week of training into Y
Critical Failure: You still have lost X, and must wait an in-game week before restarting training into Y.
For instance, if Harry the level 8 Rogue wanted to retrain out of a general feat taken at level 3 and replace it with a level 2 feat, then the DC would be 18 (16 for level 2 and +2 for Hard DC). If instead it was being replaced by a level 7 feat, the DC would be 25.
If Harry's feat was a Thievery-related feat, then the applicable skill would be Thievery. But, if the feat was related to something else (let's say Toughness), then the applicable skill would be different (in Toughness' case, it would be Fortitude). Non-obvious applicable skills would have to be discussed with the GM.
Singular magic items (for instance a +1, Holy Arrow):
Single magic arrows can be collected after a combat, unless they did critical damage, in which case they are expended.
Inherent Mythic Boons:
1. At Mythic Rank 1, the PC gets a unique Mythic Item. As the PC progresses in Mythic Ranks, the Mythic Item increases in power.
The player will devise what the Mythic Item will be at Mythic Rank 10.
The GM and the player will work together to devise how the initial Mythic Item will evolve over time.
2. At the attainment of Mythic Rank 1, 4, 7, and 10, the PC will get a free boost to an attribute modifier.
If an attribute modifier is already +4 or higher, it takes two boosts to increase it. If the PC gets a partial boost, the PC must boost that attribute again to increase it by 1.
3. At the attainment of any Mythic Rank, the player will devise a Mythic Feat, Ability, or action that, with the GMs approval the PC will get. The Mythic action will be directly related to a Feat, Ability, or action that the PC already has.
4. At Mythic Rank 10, the PC may have a second Apex Item.
Basically, it allows the PC to become more unique through inherent mythic powers.
So, Let's say at Mythic Rank 1, the Fighter gets a Mythic Breastplate. At MR 10, It is an Intelligent item that doesn't allow the PC to be flanked, and that can cast Dimension Door 3/day. At MR 1, it may only warn the wearer to decrease the Off Guard penalty by 1. Etc.
The same Fighter at MR 1, can have a Mythic Raise Shield that is a free reaction that does a Shield Bash to any foe within melee range, when the Shield Block reaction is done.
A mage at Mythic Rank 1 gets a Mythic Pearl of Power. At MR 10, it acts as a crystal ball, that gives the mage an additional spell slot at every available Spell Rank. 1/day it can maximize the dice on any damage die rolls of a spell (e.g., 6d8 would be 48). At MR 1, it gives the mage an additional spell slot at an available spell Rank.
The same Mage at MR 1, can have a Mythic Spell. For example, a Mythic Fireball would automatically have all its damage dice increased by one step.
So, rather than having all the boons be generic, this will allow each player to devise what they believe an overpowered, nearly godlike PC would be.
Krakas loses some vitality to the void before moving out of the mist and dispersing it temporarily with a Gust of Wind.

"Ow!" Tabil exclaims just after the creature howls. He instinctively steps into the corner to get some distance between himself and the creatures in the room. Pulling out an arrow, he contemplates something for a moment, then fires at the creature of flames in the room before quickly pulling some sort of leaf from his medicine kit and chewing on it vigorously.
Tabil feels the burn from the fiery creature, retreats to a corner of the room, shoots the creature, and chews a medicinal leaf.

Jeslyn's spell sucks the vitality right out of Merlin:6d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 5, 1, 2, 3) = 16 and into Jeslyn.
Merlin reacts by striking Jeslyn, but not all of the damage goes through.
Avenger of the Green is unable to staunch the flow of 'blood'.
Persistent damage:4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 5, 4) = 20

Krakas burns a little more, "Its getting pretty hot in here,"
He steps back, hopefully out of the fiery creature's aura, and then throws the hammer at the Half-Demon lady, "Bring the summoner down, the summons disappears, basic principles of magic!"

Jarlgrum (who has always been with you, but walks very, very slowly because he had to leave his horse outside) waddles in and smashes Jeslyn's head in with his warhammer.
COMBAT OVER
The fiery creature smiles knowingly, and disappears.
The room goes quiet. The only sounds are your heavy breathing, and a tiny hum from the shard of the Wardstone. You know you must destroy the Wardstone, but, it is currently encased in a cage.
Please note: Avenger of the Green still is bleeding, and Merlin's doom is progressing (He is currently at Stage 1 of Impending Doom)
Opening the cage is relatively easy, but destroying the Wardstone is more difficult.
How do you intend on its destruction? And, do you intend to heal up before doing so?

Tabil walks to the door to take a breather and notices something sticky on the floor. He follows the trail all the way to a puddle underneath the leshy.
He speaks up. "My ligneous friend, you are leaking sap. Let me look before we all walk around, sticking to the floor."
Will use assurance for a total of 19. Hope that helps.
As for after, I would prefer to heal up before doing anything else. We're pretty beat up.

The Fighter stands burning...
Reflex DC 17, Bulwark:1d20 + 8 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 8 + 3 = 29
He then shivers a bit.
Bravery:

Having faced countless foes and the chaos of battle, you have learned how to stand strong in the face of fear. Your proficiency rank for Will saves increases to expert. When you roll a success at a Will save against a fear effect, you get a critical success instead. In addition, anytime you gain the frightened condition, reduce its value by 1.

Avenger will distribute fruit of life every 10 minutes. I assume Tabil will treat wounds on four people every 10 minutes, and Irabeth will toss in lay on hands on whoever's worse. That should get us healed up in 20 minutes on average.
Merlin is able to put out the fire, and puts on a brave face against the fears he has internally.
Avenger of the Green bleeds more, but is able to staunch the wound.
Merlin:
The image of your death, not by glorious battle, not even by the cave in, but, by the worms eating your flesh while you are fully aware, stuns you. Stunned 1, the jolt of its finality wracks your brain.
Should a wardstone go more than a year without a maintenance ritual, it can be damaged as any other object, though it remains a dense and difficult to break stone. Destroying a wardstone breaks its link in the chain of wardstones, though the gap in its effect can vary between a few dozen feet to several miles in length.
You know that the demons plan to use this wardstone shard to create an effect that will kill all of the non-demons near any of the still-intact Wardstones.
Specifically, you were sent here to destroy this shard.
Tabil knows that the wardstone fragment is part of a larger artifact. The wardstones in the cities were used to prevent Fiends from exiting the WorldWound. Now that this wardstone is broken, soon the demons will be able to come from the WorldWound and destroy everything. Tabil also knows that the demons are corrupting the wardstone fragment in order to kill all the crusaders in all of the cities surrounding the WorldWound that have a wardstone in them.
The wardstones were put into place by Iomedae's Herald.

Merlin immediately opens his blue eyes. He winks at Jarlgrum. The Fighter then picks up his shield and longsword, stands, and marches right over to the Ward Stone fragment.

Unless you can think of a better way to break it, it will take a long time. Merlin has a 1/64th chance of getting past its hardness 25. It will work, eventually.
I feel bad I didn't remember that from 6 months ago, looking back I had a significant involvement in that roleplay at that moment
Krakas digs around his pack, searching for a tucked away rod, pulling it out, "Wait Merlin, how silly of me, I forgot we had this Rod of Cancelation for just this very moment, stand back, I don't know what will happen when I touch these two together,"
Krakas, a little battered still, strides forward and activates the Rod of Cancelation on the Wardstone fragment.
