*Spoilers* Anyone feel joining Emet would have been better

[Slatersev]

So one of the bigger questions I sort of thought of; from a practical non-ideological standpoint, was sundering the star really necessary?

A sundered Zodiark, with only 7 rejoinings (even when he had NO rejoinings at one point); was able to hold The Final Days at bay for over 12,000 years with no real sign of faltering in the slightest. Wouldn't it stand to reason that full power unsundered Zodiark could just hold Meteion's dynamis wave back for pretty much all of eternity? Making the sundering pretty much pointless for non-ideological reasons.

Considering we find out in Ultima Thule that Meteion was speeding up the Heat Death of the Universe with Dynamis, no. She was always going to get Etheirys unless she was actively dealt with.

The Ancients turtling behind Zodiark isnt a stalemate for her, its just a road block she would eventually be able to break one way or the other
