    I don't see as to why ancients need a bone thrown at them. They were actively hostile to us and our existence, and their demise was their own making. Venat is gone for good and the rest who still exist in the aetherial sea will eventually be reborn to this flawed world, which by itself is sweet, sweet karma, but also the '' thrown bone '' depending on the perspective, as Gaia for example is surely doing her best to enjoy the world as it is now.

    How were they hostile? Please tell me you know that the ascians and ancients are separate things. Their demise wasn’t their own making. In that case then the 8UC was the Sundered’s demise of their own making. The ancients themselves did nothing wrong.

    Personally, I prefer to have empathy for the 75% of the surviving native inhabitants of the world who gave their lives to save the planet. And they will be indeed be reborn into that same world, as their culture held to be important, rather than viewing it as some sort of karmic 'punishment' for... having three people labor to fight on their behalf.

    No. No it most certainly was not. If the Ancients had allowed their civilization to go the way of the Plenty (as the writers suggest may have happened eventually at some theoretical point in the distant future) then that would have been a demise of their own making.
