Which transitional word or phrase is most appropriate in an essay that is organized chronologically? afterward, all things considered, in other words, furthermore,

If an essay is order Chronologically, then it is more or less like steps. So we would want a(n) transitional phrase that sounds like it could fit into a step process. That would be "Afterward," This phrase is most likely to show up in a chronological essay than the others. If you look at the others they are all shadowing further elaboration on something.

The answer is afterward

I'd say afterward is the answer, because "in other words" doesn't mean after or then.. "All things considered" isn't really meaning after, furthermore doesn't mean after either. Then we lead to afterward, which literally has the word AFTER in it.
