'''Void''' is one of several known manifestations of the [[Light]], along with [[Arc]] and [[Solar]]. It is associated with gravity and the distortion of spacetime, and allows its wielders to generate black holes, gravity waves and other spacetime-warping effects. It is also a class of [[Elemental damage|elemental damage]].


==Overview==
==Overview==
Void energy is related to dark energy/matter and gravitational attraction, and can be wielded by [[Guardian]]s to generate black holes, spatial warps, and other distortions of spacetime. The use of Void Light has deep metaphysical connotations, as well being associated with a number of superstitions; it has been described as "weaponizing the unknown"<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/cards/void?highlight=unknown Void Grimoire]</ref>, and Ikora once described the Void as "negation".<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/talk-to-ikora-23?highlight=negation Talk to Ikora]</ref>It was once considered taboo to use Void powers, as some viewed the Void to be "dark"; however, the Void itself is defined as being absent of Light or Darkness, and Void Light is merely a means to manipulate it.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/savin?highlight=Savin Savin]</ref>

According to [[Osiris]], Void is the element of cosmic distortion; the pull of gravity and the promise of entropy. That the vacuum of space and the gravitational forces that shape it show that emptiness is not nothingness. According to [[Ikora]], to use Void is to draw power from both the immeasurably small and the unfathomably massive, and with it bend the very fabric of space-time.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UKeMo3UerU&ab_channel=SILENTSIX| Osiris explains the elements]</ref>
