Given the ancients are a society of scientists it wouldn't take them long to get up to speed on it, the only reason they are pretty ignorant of it is generally been regarded as too weak to do anything with (as the sundered do as well) so it's regarded as nothing but a curiosity. Once the End of Days proves them wrong in that regard it stands to reason they'd investigate it and besides Venat seems pretty knowable on given how many assumptions she makes in her plans
