Altering the cycle is harmful since it builds stagnancy. The Ea and Omnicron got erased by stagnancy and lack of meaningful purpose.
There is no reason for them to move forward, there is no reason for them to even feel like they should pass their legacy to someone else as they rest.
Everything within Primals, Dragons, and such still respects the cycle of life, and those outside of the cycle of life straight up were consumed by Meteion and the despair it brought.
It is simply a story to learn the weight people have on their shoulders, even Zoraal Ja as simple of a villain as he was, turned into his whole situation due to the inability to be worthy of his father's legacy, as the populace, in general, kept putting pressure onto him.
Learning about the culture, the entire conversation where the Newest Hanu Hanu is forgetting about old rites, how every single bit of the culture was being diluted or not being able to be fulfilled was also the theme of legacy.
The only race that truly respected its legacy where the Giants as they were so attached to their past, and those teachings were taken by Sphene, learned differently since they are from another reflection and twisted due to the inability to move on and know that everything has an end.
