Concern over memoria crystal being brought over to the Source...

[Alleo]

But wouldn't the fact that she was tainted in the womb into being "part" voidsent imply that the memoria were already leaking eidolon essences before she was born, given her mother was a memoriate?

I guess it could have been the crystal. Or the darkness came from the summoned beings. Hopefully we get an answer to that in the future.

Could be the plan. Have the Voidsent too powerful to travel via portal to the Source be trapped in crystal. Crystal gets taken to Source and they can then bust out and feast on aether.

But because we take their bodies to the Source, they essentially become mortal, due to the fact that we HAVE a Lifestream there. A death with their original body on the Source could equal them forcibly dragged into the Lifestream, something that couldn't happen on the 13th because they don't really have a proper one there. Or at least that's how I'd write it.

I really hope that dying cleanse their souls, or else we might have a few problems down there.
Between Pandaemonium and the prophecy in the Studium, the lifestream really don't need dead voidsents infecting it.

But i guess it's fine if it's only a couple of voidsents being send there.

Considering it can cleanse Zodiark's Tempering and handle the souls of Ancients (so far), I'm pretty sure it can handle voidsent.

In addition, it seems sealing aether in the form of a memoria isn't simply trapping a soul inside a crystal similar to what happens with the ascians and auracites. Instead, it's a stasis form of aether where it's crystallized.
While this explanation is pure speculation, it does explain where the crystal came from, how it works, and probably why it can't be reversed by known means.

May also tie into why Hydaelyn’s crystal reacted to Zero. Her powers are umbral in nature, maybe even light-based.

Well they all desperately want to come here, so they clearly think it is worth the risk.

They ARE kind of stuck in a fate worse than death. Eat or get eaten, only come back when the thing that has eaten you has been destroyed temporarily, and the thing that ate you may get EATEN by you. A true death on the Source would be a mercy.

[Cleretic]

It should also be noted that, while there's a lot of voidsent that do want to come to the Source, pretty much the only exceptions we've actually met are the ones that we crystallized. Scar and Barb seemed pretty happy terrorizing the Void, and while we know Golbez has greater plans, they seem more conquest-y.
