Once Zodiark died his shielding faded away and allowing the planet and us to be susceptible to dynamis once more. Well once more for the planet in general.
Specifically while the aether of the Ancients was too dense, creation magic was able to be manipulated by dynamis.
Which makes me believe that creation magic might not be powered by aether at all. It may be able manipulate and shape it, but the actual source of creation magic might be something totally separate from dynamis and aether.
