I'd recommend going with Jymsar and entirely skipping Alen's route in that case. There isn't going to be a large difference between the two routes anyway, other than more intimate scenes with the route character along the journey.
I haven't thought about not having romance in the routes, but I don't think it's likely to happen.
There won't be a big difference depending on the choice of route ? Isn't that a bit... Strange? I don't want to criticize and upset you but if we are to choose one or the other it should go without saying that there will be an impact on the story in someway.
The story is still awesome, I don't want to make it sound like it's bad. It's amazing!!
