So, that third civilization in the last dungeon likely already were seeking death. Meteion, being able to manipulate dynamis the way she can, simply brought it about.
Well, that's even more unbelievable. We're just going to accept that every living creature outside of Etheirys has no basic survival instinct? The odds of that are astronomically low. Life seeks to continue often beyond reason. This is like saying the entire universe was suicidally depressed except for Etheirys and they were headed that way just because everyone else was. It's an extremely flawed concept for a multitude of reasons.

My money is more on a certain entity causing those feelings to manifest, which isn't outside the realm of possibility considering her primary developmental exposure was to an "abberation", in Hermes' words, in the Ancient world who couldn't find joy in his life.
