I can understand the point of view here, I just would say that they are still rather active in the affairs of mortals. Sure, their greatest creation might have wiped itself out - or at least mostly - but there is still a great deal to cherish and shape.

And regarding the manifestation issue, I think I may have inadvertently put that in a while back. And I am now holding on to it, as the way you put it makes it awesome
