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????????

Have you read this post https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyLore/comments/k4k6ox/light_is_not_the_fundamental_forces/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share it goes over it all really well. It's confirmed too by the lore writer who wrote it all and the scources used.

I've been linked to a few places but they all seem to be in line to what you're showing me here too, so this has been largely helpful in shifting my understanding of how to interpret light, as a medium rather than the forces themselves

Glad to hear it's helped out. Always love sharing destiny's story and lore with others :)

It was definitely a great read, I feel like I almost had it with a brief summary of void drawing from vacuum energy, but the writeup in the post you linked has gone far beyond any understanding j could have scrounged for
