As would the Ancients as well. Reincarnation doesn’t work well when the Aetherial sea is drowned in Dynamis.
Manipulating dynamis was never the only reason, only a potential benefit. The Sundering is described as a “desperate act which allowed Her to imprison His shattered essence upon the moon.” It wasn’t the ideal.
Dynamis manipulation was not something she could have direct experience in. What she did know was either told to her by us in Elpis, or was represented by the Elpis flower.
Dynamis is governed by emotions, so prayer and love and hate and pain and feelings in general do command it. That’s why hope is so important, as it is both a shield and a sword.
