Well, the void seemed to actually have stuff in it. So I am not sure how the void can be actually rationalized as nothingness.
Why would one be attracted to the power of nothingness? The mere power to consume?
Why would the Void actually create exdeath, or allow such a thing to exist? For such a force that wants nothingness, creating somthing to carry out this goal seems very back asswards.
To me, I think that the worlds of Final Fantasy V and 9 should be looked at a lot more closley. The world that Kuja destroys and Gaia seem to have much in common with world 1 and world 2.
I still find the significance of the void's likeness to space to be very staggering.
All I have for now
