I know its probably nitpicking but Ancients are not necessarily Ascians, while all Ascians are Ancient ones. The 14th for example was never an Ascian, because they left, thus only the 13 people of the council are Ascians, anyone else might be an Ancient one. But I also wonder if having the echo might mean that one could have been an Acient one. Maybe that is why Elidibus says that we would take their side if we knew the whole truth about the echo? That he believes that anyone that knows that the Ancient ones once existed would suddenly decide that mass genocide of whole worlds are fine?

Umm no? I believe Emet refers to his race as Ascian at least in direct dialog with the WoL, Emet was actually referring to his people that they all didn't think alike.

Keep in mind at least for me, I do refer to them as "Ancients" to distinguish between the leftover Ascians and the fact that Amaurot is a place, not the name of the race which covered the whole planet.
