Post WoL, its the same thing, just with the added bonus of suffering is best for life to have meaning.
Lahabrea was right, the root of the corruption is Hydaelyn.

Which I don't think is the OPs point. I think its because much like ARR and other expansions the story wasn't centered around the WoL/WoD, it again was based on the Ancients and their actions. Which works to provide the exposition needed to end the total story of ARR and Hydaelyn but makes for a pretty boring story.
That’s what i mean though. They had to involve all of this convoluted time travel to try and frame the sundering as semi-right when in reality it just isn’t. There’s little reasoning for her to have actually done it when they could’ve combatted meteion themselves, and it’s not like the ancients were without suffering. We’re shown numerous times how they suffered pre final days and even pandaemonium gives more insight on that, so that whole theme just comes off as pretty shoddy as well.
