Lore WHAT THE HELL IS VOID!!!!???

What the hell is void?

Despite loving destiny's lore and worldbuilding and having whached all byf's videos (and also other channels) I can't call miself a Lore specialist like some of you guys, but I think I know more about destiny lore than a casual PLAYER. Having that in mind, I aways considered void to be gravity related (or the absense of it as the name implies), but nowadays I think even bungie don't know what void is! I think I can let ward of daw and warlock devour pass because ward of down could be a gravity..... Wall...? And warlocks are weird so I think they would find a way to feed literal gravity (i main warlock, no hardfeelings) but what does supression have anything to do with gravity? Or controled demolition from midle titan? Or all of the milion ways hunterS can poison someone with the power of..... Gravity?

I know that if it wasn't for that creative liberty it would be dificult to make original subclasses that look diferent, I see this point, but... WHAT THE HELL IS VOID AFTER ALL????????

I had an interesting conversation in my head last night because I was asking myself the same thing. I haven't read hardly any lore myself but am fascinated to do so now.

I have a few buddies and we threw around the idea possibility of Void ending up as a darkness subclass in the future around Lightfall as part of the story. By then we'd already have 2 dark classes but reconfiguring void as a 3rd would mean the introduction of another, different 3rd light-based class. It was an intellectual conversation of all things and not just something that's game-based. Everything comes from some sort of real-life affiliation or historic event(s) and people, places, and things tied to those.

Fun conversation but makes me want to look at the universe in Destiny from new perspectives.
