You're talking about the work of generations, not individuals. That's where you 'immortals' get tripped up. You just can't fathom the idea that those cycles you see are real for people. And some of them are the ones who stop the hate and the violence. Maybe a few hundred years of peace might not seem like much to you, but that's generations. That's lifetimes. That's children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and more who never see anything horrible.
My own world is destroyed. The apocalypse has come. The Fears rule over it. There is nothing we can do to change that, as far as I know. At least these people who live their small little 'fragmented' lives still have a chance for something better. Depending on where they are in your cycles, it might not be for generations, but it will come. And it doesn't need some self-appointed Architect to see it done.
