(Spoiler) About amaurots downfall

I like to think the sound coming from the planet was the planet itself rejecting the Ascians manipulation of reality.

Planets having their own will is a regular concept in final fantasy series, a few games even had the "Weapon" monsters that are summoned when the planet faces a problem.

In FF7 (a game that heavily influences FFXIV) these weapons had pretty specific purposes (especially chaos and omega), showing the planet is aware of itself, has intelligence and is prone to extreme solutions. Hell the planet blasted a meteor out of space. Ascians creations are made of ether, could be the exact same problem as ff7, the planet not liking how its inhabitants use its life energy as fuel.

Ascians were altering reality itself, I can see the planet seeing this as unnatural and thus decided to erradicate the problem.

Makes even more sense because of Zodiark. He did not "stop" the sound, he altered the rules of physics for the whole star, perharps turning the ascians work into the normal state of the planet instead of what was there originally.

Using FFXIV concepts, the sound could be the planet itself using ether creation. Which would require both Willpower and Ether control.
