For the maze:
Find the Path: Roll Hunting/Perception (Trailblazing) at TN15 or Lore: Medinaat al-Salaam/Perception at TN20. Mekham characters reduce the TN by 5. Way of the Land: Medinaat al-Salaam reduces the TN by 5. Absolute Direction reduces the TN by 5. These reductions stack and may negate the need to roll. If traveling to a location within the Maze you have visited before Precise Memory applies despite this not being an Intelligence check.
Would Lore: Underworld also work here?

I'd allow it if you're specifically seeking something criminal but not for general path finding.

The 'roll again and keep second roll' for the event is a reroll with the same pool/raises/etc. Correct?

Influence-City 0, Origin 2, Faction 1 * Glorious 1, Infamous 0 * Integrity- Honorless

Equipment usually present: Comfortable Nomad's clothing and jewelry, Knife (Kindjal)

It's intended as a completely new run at everything other than animal handling. You could do different raises if you wish. You do suffer a one point penalty though for doing so.

Ok, that's quite a bit more interesting for the decision tree.

Void points spent remain spent then as well? (vs. the way most reroll tech works).

That is correct. It's really a 'oh, boy, I really messed up' reset button

Which gods are prayed in the House of the Heavens? In general, what is the dominant religion in Medinaat al-Salaam?

Quick general question you may have more or less answered already - for Integrity changes (and also any money changes and other stuff), are you planning on keeping doing them daily, or per session, or something else?

Cheers!
