    It comes from the depths of the Darkhold

    I don't know if this is a mistake or not, but since we don't have a lore forum, I'm going to post this here regardless.

    Compare the pair:





    So either the name of this voidsent was duplicated in error, or Atomos is trolling us.

    "That thing that used to give you trouble in Dzemael? Yeah, he's just one of my clerks..."

    Will he be spawning Batraal's brothers and sisters come October?

    I may just be asking the same questions... With fire raining down from the skies and Dalamud desending on us, anything can happen and Batraal bros & sistas may want to have a party!

    The Void encompasses everything beyond the realm we can comprehend. I assume The Void is a catch-all term for anything that doesn't share our senses of reality and/or lives in different dimensional space. Therefore, it's reasonable that the mobs we see coming through are just those from a certain area of The Void where things aren't overly dissimilar from where we dwell.

    Inside the Darkhold, a rift has been opened between the worlds. Batraal entered and slaughtered everyone working there, and all of the other mobs flooded through as well. In this case, it's Atomos that has linked the realms and is flooding it with enemies, but theoretically they're from a relatively similar space as those that now in habit the Darkhold.

    Much like how hippogryphs were able to find their way out of the Void into Eorzea, the ogres have as well. This time, wherever the Deepvoid Slaves come from is where the Atomos pulled from, I guess.

    Or they just felt like copypasta was a good idea.

    That sounds like a good affirmation. You're good, Moose.

    I don't understand Atomos.

    It manipulates time/space.

    It can summon monsters from the void. What keeps it from just making everything not exist?

    ...maybe it wants something? Seems to like chewing up aether.

    If Atomos would just make himself cease to exist...he wouldn't have to go through the trouble of eating aether

    What I mean is, crystals have been in almost every storyline of Final Fantasy in some way, just like Atomos.

    What keeps it from going to the point where crystals were made, and it just absorbs them for ultimate power?

    It's like the ultimate force, yet it isn't at the same time.
