 The Death Wave was a defined solitary point in time which created a causality paradox: anyone who was connected to a Soulforge (and thusly a Dreamwalker) was killed using that connection. There were people who could not be reached by the effects of the ritual at that time, but as a result of being “marked” by their at-the-time Dreamwalker status would immediately undergo the effects as per the causality of that event. The only way to prevent deaths via the Death Wave would be to go back in time and undo it entirely, something which is both currently impossible and a catastrophically bad idea due to the incalculable ripple effects that that would cause on the timeline as a result.  The Death Wave was a defined solitary point in time which created a causality paradox: anyone who was connected to a Soulforge (and thusly a Dreamwalker) was killed using that connection.

 During the [[Solstice]] festivities hosted by [[Chaos]], several Dreamwalkers used the [[Time Stone]] to view the moments just before the Death Wave went off. Thylsyphyr was heard telling Serenity to “take [his] heart and begin the ritual” before he noticed the Dreamwalkers observing him. He was able to use the Time Stone and the presence of the Tablets to step into the present. During the [[Solstice]] festivities hosted by [[Chaos]], several Dreamwalkers used the [[Time Stone]] to view the moments just before the Death Wave went off.
