    I'm wondering how did the Ascians leap to the conclusion that Zodiark would be able to bring back the 75% of the ancients that sacrificed their lives and souls to Zodiark to stop a calamity and bring new life back to the planet. Are they seeing this as some sort of Rhea and Kronos baby God eating scenario? Wouldn't those souls/aether have been used up in the process or am I just over thinking the aetherial digestive system of a primal?

    Since Emet-Selch could see dead souls perhaps he (and possibly some others) saw the souls of the sacrificed inside Zodiark and maybe they were suffering there and that's why they decided to free them?

    Well they have just created something that was able to rewrite the laws of existance and saved a death planet. Maybe they thought that he simply could do everything. Being struck by grief might have helped to form that view.

    Or since they are tempered it was something Zodiark told them and they just believed him. If he in any form as some form of will it could be that he liked getting energy and thus "promised" them to give them back if they get him something else for it. Maybe he would have brought them back in the form of soulless bodies or maybe he never planned to. I am looking forward to future information on how much Zodiark and Hydealyn have their own agenda.
