meteion just killed a failed race of ancients that had failed hermes test of proving their worthiness to live and there is little proof that meteion killed any civilization she actually came across their own failures was most likely amplified by her presence but she did not kill them i'm glad endwalker shined some light on the ancients and proving they was not the utopia society that people think they are they was a highly flawed race that ultimately got erased like they had for so many other failed concepts ironically they died by their very own measurement of what makes one worthy of existence to the very end Emet-Selc and the other 2 failed to proven the ancients worthy of being alive by not respecting all life Emet proved Hermes right in his role as Chief of Elpis Hermes test determined that the ancients was indeed not worhy of life
