How were they jeopardizing billions of people? Either way, we weren't put in a position to judge them.

Actually, if you want to put it that way, that's fine by me. As I said, this story is told from our point of view. Anything that harms us is to be fought. That's not even something to be argued against.

I don't think we have enough information regarding this. It seems to me that the cutscene we saw was a recreation centered on Venat's motivation, rather than a chronological retelling of the events that happened.

At what point would you take action against her? When she was helping you through some of the biggest fights through her blessing? Where in the chronology between 1.0 (or 2.0) up to 6.0 would you have the chance to come around and take action against her?

Actually, she wanted to see if mankind could survive on their own and indeed initiated the fight herself. So, taking action against her would've just played into her plan. The only difference is it'd be going out of the WoL's character to do it sooner than the trial. Because up to that point, she had not taken action against the WoL.
1.Her backup plan involved fleeing the source, which means once Meteion destroyed it, all the shards would cease to exist. She would destroy it, as she was essentially destroying everything in her path at that point. Even the scions acknowledge it would happen and that they wouldnt leave the shards behind.
2.They acknowledged that in messing with time they could cause their own timeline to cease to exist,everyone in that timeline would be dead, and they still went along with it.
3.Thats fine, its your opinion, however i personally find it extremely hypocritical based on the themes the writers have been pushing constantly.
4.The cutscene we saw was a recording was it not? Stands to reason it was an accurate representation. They didnt even know they were going to die and be sacrificed as they lament the loss of Venat. If they knew they were being sacrificed why would they lament losing her? They'd be dead.


In the end. all of this could've bene avoided if she had just simply gave her knowledge to others and formulated a plan instead of giving up on them and placing her trust in someone she had only just met.
