Im playing as the byzantine empire and i've mended the schism in favour of orthodoxy and now am looking to change to hellenic before i create the roman empire. I've gotten the mystic courtier show up, took about 3 game years for that to happen, but now 10 years later i havent gotten any option to learn his secrets so i can convert. Is this something that just takes a very long time or is it possible to screw it up somehow?

I believe your character needs a specific trait as well (cynical?) for it to fire. Their presence in your court doesn't suffice alone
The intrigue annotaion to actually change says i need to either be cynical or a mystic. I'm already a mystic so its not blocking me on that. I just need to either have a leige who is hellenic already or be taught by a mystic the secrets of the ancients. It says nothing else on the subject. Are you saying the mystic in my court wont teach me unless im cynical?
I don't really know much more than you do about the event(s) in question so other than the trait requirements (which you are fine on).
Have you checked if he died? They have a bad habit of doing that, because they start at old age.
Its possible, i dont remember the name the event gave me, so i cant prove it wrong. All i can say is that there is a man with the mystic trait in my court still. If he does die is that it? will i get the event again or do i have to force it with console commands?
As far as I remember from glancing at the files, you can get a new mystic every ten years.
Have you checked if the guy with the mystic trait has the right religion? If not, he's not your guy.
