Because as it is, there’s a massive plot crater in that we know the echo can show others our memory, so Venat could’ve done that. There’s also the kind of….really messed up problem of pandaemonium, where were expected to just hang around these ancients and pretend like they aren’t all going to be murdered soon.
I think it would have better to tell it in another way, yeah. Maybe frame it as the Ancients struggling and ultimately failing to defeat Meteion despite the warning and their best efforts, which would have made her at least appear as more of a threat. And upon disagreeing with the thought of sacrificing themselves to summon a primal, Venat thought the best course of action would be to Sunder their world to give us a chance. Or something. Idk. lol I think they did Zodiark dirty too after a decade of build up. He had been framed as the big bad from the start, and he got possessed by some washed up Allagan-turned-Ascian resulting in a WoW Classic Ragnaros moment. "TOO SOON, FANDANIEL!"
