Nothing. Louisoix probably sent the Warriors of Light to The Void through a complex variant of the Banish spell, which would make sense as Banish does force its target into The Void. But unless protected by powerful magic or can control the powers of The Void, only those that feed on nothingness (i.e. Cloud of Darkness) can even survive inside of it. There is also no way to travel in time using The Void to my knowledge. Louisoix probably froze 'em in time, shunted them to the void, then had the spell shunt them back once five years was up. Damn impressive spellcrafting by Louisoix, though. Pretty sure only Shantotto could even hope to top that.
