    The souls in the afterlives slowly dissipate and fuse with them, thus providing energy for the gods to help tide them over. However, I'd imagine there's a quick round of nuking to mop up any "squatters" (so to speak) who inexplicably are able to survive through the world's end by one means or another. And they also rework the world to match the new theme, so even if someone (and/or their family tree) endured that long they might not be compatible with the new physics.

    An explanation of why MitD being any larger than Huge is implausible.

    See my extended signature here! May contain wit, candor, and somewhere from 52 to 8127 walruses.

    Purple is humorous descriptions made up on the fly
    Green is serious talk about hypothetical
    Blue is irony and sarcasm
