question regarding lore (spoiler ish)

[anguel]

ok so killed zodiarch few days ago, all good and then yesterday killed meteion big huge transformation

but emet-selch said something that made me tilt

"have you visited other reflect ?"
my reaction was more like " how would i, i just killed zodiark where the reflect are from", (fragment of hes soul) didnt these disapeared aswell ?
(or at least should cause ofc can still go to shadowbringer area)

or did i miss something ?

You seem to be a bit ill-informed, my friend.

The source was sundered by Hydaelyn, not Zodiark. And regardless of what happens to them, it will remain sundered unless someone undoes the sundering. Which we stopped.

the source ? im a bit confused here i must admit, because when a reflect got destroyed its not the planet that got changed (beside huge cataclysm), but zodiark that got rejuvenated (as from my understanding he linked himself with the planet like hydaelin did)

The reflections are entirely other worlds, like how we went to the First in Shadowbringers which is one of the 13 reflections. Seven of them have been reabsorbed back int the Source, and the 13th shard we've been to as well (alebit briefly) in the Crystal Tower raids as the World of Darkness, meaning there are 4 worlds we've never seen.

The rejoinings basically are that the reflection gets destroyed entirely while a devastating cataclysm impacts the Source, usually resulting in massive death and devestation on the world. By doing the rejoinings, the Ascians were attempting to weaken the bindings on Zodiark so that he could be freed. Fandaniel released him prematurely in main story, which is why if you look at him in the trial, actual pieces of his being are also missing.
