How do calamities work, again?

[Jandor]

I just don't understand something.
If à flood occurred on all rejoined shard. Why didn't the 13th (now named the void) joined? The explanation used to be '' a flood of darkness happened making it un rejoins le '' (#useless).
But then we learn that other shard have been flooded and did rejoin.

Soo... I don't get it

What I got was that they overdid it in the void without creating the right conditions on the source. Was the first attempt after all, they weren't sure what they were doing.

The other shards, they aspected them one way or another and made sure the source had a crack in it for the flood to rush through.

The void, they just messed it up without giving the resultant mess anywhere to go, and now they can't get it to go anywhere because it's just a stagnant mass of useless void.

That's how I interpreted it anyway.

If memory serves, the Void no longer has any Aether to send to the source. I imagine there was a point where there was the proper buildup of the right aspected aether, but with no way to get to the Source (Not prepared properly), it all eventually got eaten by what became the Voidsent.

Which makes me wonder what would happen if we just sicced the Voidsent on worlds experiencing a Flood. They'd probably lose, but it's a funny thought.

Bloody as all hell is what it would be. Better to send the Flood to the Void if anything, atleast if no one but monsters live there at all. Course we'll have to see more of the Void to know for sure.
