That's true. I think we've discussed this in other threads already and are starting to go in circles. We don't know what kind of life Zodiark created but it may have been intelligent as 1) it would explain why the Hydaelyn supporters had a problem with sacrificing them and 2) Emet's plan is to sacrifice the rejoined life on the Source to Zodiark, so we know that the Ascians approve. I think it's best to table this issue for now since we simply don't know.

Another thing I'm confused about is the difference between whole and fragmented souls. Emet has made a lot of claims but we haven't seen a single difference other than comparing WoL and Emet (and possibly Ryne) vs. everyone else, and the only difference there has been power, and in Emet's case, longevity.
