To add to this, Erim is particularly important among the Sinistrals, being shown as the only one to ever interact with Arek throughout the series. We can likely assume Arek revives her every 100 years and she proceeds to resurrect the other Sinistrals (Why he doesn't do it himself is a valid question).

However, it seems he places some degree of interest in Erims interaction with humanity. In the ending of the DS remake, he asks her to report her findings on humanity and muses on Erim sacrficing herself to save Maxims life. There is also the fact Erim comes back to life as her human alter ego after being defeated in both Lufia 1 and TLR, albeit without her memories in the former or her powers in the latter. Perhaps her return here is the work of Arek resurrecting her to spend her life with the Hero and Wain respectively.

The real doozy in all of this is that this would imply the Hero breeds a half-human half-god child together with Lufia and that Wain carries the blood of a Sinistral. If this is intended by Arek, I'm not sure what he's trying to accomplish. Perhaps its just another of his musings on if Man or God should inherit the earth and his solution is instead crossbreeding the two to create peace between the two races. Maybe he simply sympathises with Erims suffering and this is his reward for her.

Alternatively Lufia and Seena respectively are stripped of their godhood upon resurecction and are 100% human in their endings and this point is entirerly moot.

Alternatively alternatively Arek is just a sick fuck.

The fact he needs to ask Erim for a report seems to imply he is not omnipresent or all-knowing, instead using Erim as a tool to interact with humanity. In a way, this sort of makes her a Diplomat for the gods. Albeit one responsible for untold amount of human deaths throughout the series and occasionally fucking gingers. No wonder she was tired of it all in TLR and wished for death.
