Goblin Kernel Panic Regarding void

What follows about void is a goblin's account, which means most of it is accurate, some of it is invented, and the parts that matter most are stolen from someone else.

Consider: if an AI were asked to generate an explanation of void, it would produce something that sounds correct but may not be. This is identical to what a goblin would produce. The difference? The goblin knows it might be wrong and doesn't care. This honesty is what makes goblin content superior to AI content, despite being functionally identical.
