    It's not that Dynamis is 100% emotional. It's how it's manipulated that's the question.

    No one taught us how to manipulate it.

    No one explained how Hermes manipulated it to create an entity that could manipulate it at will...

    The most nebulous thing surrounding Dynamis is the writing for it. It was literally a means to an end to up the power of Meteion to be greater than that of Zodiark or Hydaelyn. While also basically letting the writers be like, "Why did this work out that way? DYNAMIS BABY!"

    God, I miss when it was Diabolos's dark dream.

    "I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip." - Rabindranath Tagore

    Actually, somebody did in a sense...Fray, in the level 30-50 DRK questline. Which by how the devs like to make every questline canon, means that's the canon answer of how we learned how to manipulate it. And I know, that sounds really weird considering Fray is really just the WoL's self-esteem given physical form. But considering how Sundered members of the Convocation still possess some incredibly powerful forms of magic despite being Sundered (see Gaia for examples), it's not a stretch to think that we were able teach it to ourselves. It wouldn't surprise me if Azem was able to manipulate Dynamis on some level seeing as how they were seemingly (or at least other Ancients give the impression) more in tune with their emotions than most Ancients.
