What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

[Aline_D]

If the Ancients have the ability to create Meteion, a hivemind that can manipulate Dynamis, they should have the ability to create other things that can fight against her with Dynamis. Especially if all of the ancients are working together to, you know, not die.

The only one who knew about Dynamis, much less use it, was Hermes, which is a terrible warning as he ended up doing a "universe"-ending mistake as he didn't realize how strong Dynamis can be.

And it is irrelevant since if he knew what was really going on, he would try to sabotage any attempt to stop Meteion as he did before the memory wipe.

And "surely they would think of something" is meaningless, unless you have a specific example to give.


And finally even if they somehow managed to stop Meteion, we (and Venat) knows they were bound to be destroyed either by misuse of their power or by losing the will to live like all other civilisations.
