I mean, the catalyst for the Final Days in their time is one and the same as the one in the Sundereds' time. Difference between the two episodes is, initially, they never pinpointed the actual reason and only Venat (presumably others she informed) knew of the actual source of the problem and Zodiark, despite being a God to rewrite the laws of reality and to bring salvation, ultimately acted more like an aetherial dam for the torrential rivers of Dynamis coming from the Ultima Thule (and, as a result, providing a bandaid solution for temporary relief). His presence was also to strengthen the waning celestial aetherial currents, as originally Fandaniel assumed that those weaker spots were part of the reason behind why things were going to shit.

Ancients were too aetherially dense for the Dynamis to interfere directly with their physical being, so instead their creations - which are made up of a fraction of their aetherial energy - began to turn instead. Whereas, for sundered souls, their aetherial density isn't enough to purely ward off Dynamis (and also leads into the ability to more easily directly channel/manipulate dynamis, ie: Limit Break, Dynamis Dice as gameplay mechanics.)

Dynamis itself just energy affected by emotion, and emotions cover the entire emotional spectrum. It, itself, doesn't have a motive unless it's harnessed by someone who does (the Meteia).

The WoL/Scions removed the catalyst for the Final Days (the Meteia and the overwhelming sorrow/despair/etc... they hoarded for millenia), and so the Final Days ceases.
