    Noble is a matter of perspective. People are leaving out the part where the ascians needed to keep sacrificing half their population to give Zodiark the aether it needed. Also that the ascians ultimate plan was to do a rejoining and then sacrifice all life on the Source. They were chasing after a world whose time was over trying to recreate a past that was gone. As Alisae said they can’t bring back the dead.

    I literally did say noble goals with just evil execution.

    Both sides were trying to recreate the world and bring back the ones they have lost. Though I’m starting to wonder just how much of The 8th Umbral Calamity as portrayed by Urianger was true.
