Voidheart

TERRITORY OF The Knives of Eylis (Lawless)

Halls of inscrutable architecture stretch as far as the eye can see. No human could've constructed this, almost defying the laws of the realm itself.

The Voidheart is a location in Deepwoken. It is the forward base of the The Knives of Eylis, who signed a contract with Eylis herself.

Overview

The Voidheart is the resting place of The Knives of Eylis. Located in an unknown location and only accessible in people's dreams, it represents itself as a large set of corridors and grey walls.

Only players who have selected the Voidwalker Origin can access this area.

Lore

• The Voidheart is described as a location with no physical form. The various members "dream" of this place and find themselves within it. Leaving the Voidheart is referred to as "waking up".
• The Voidmother is the reason the Voidheart exists. According to it, there is no singular, unified Voidheart. Everybody sees it differently, but it maintains the immaculate white hallway appearance across each person.
• Some members of the Knives Of Eylis are here by choice, while other arent. Various are the motifs of their allegiance, either money, power or something else. This is explained by Raen.
  • When talking to the Voidmother for the first time, the player can choose their reason for taking the voidwalker contract, such as making ends meet, power or tiring of their old life, among many other. This, however, have no effect on anything and merely gives different responses from the Voidmother.
  • While a less universal goal, Eylis herself have her own set of plan and goals which she does not reveal, but hint at the player's inclusion in them, saying that "You're... different, from the rest".

Trivia

• The music for this area is Of Labours, Veiled by Naktigonis
• Voidheart is rougly 35k studs away from Etris. Its coordinates are at -20000, 20000, -20000, putting it far away in the Southwest of the play area and high up in the air.
  • The Roblox engine tends to struggle rendering things when too far away from 0, 0, 0. This can be seen by zooming in very close to the player and watching their polygons becoming distorted.
• Originally, The Voidheart was a leftover area marker far away into the Void Sea. It had nothing.
• Punchee has stated that Voidheart was MelonBeard's (LimeBeard) island where you could play chess at. (Source: https://youtu.be/4KLGPkyCff0?t=102)
  • This has been partially confirmed, as there is now a chess board there.
  • The chess board is 100% accurate to real chess, it's just that the pieces have been replaced by Deepwoken monsters.
• It is very common to get attacked in the Voidheart, even though it is seen as dishonorable to do so.
  • There used to be guards within the Voidheart that would teleport in when a player was attacked. They were very buggy however, causing a memory leak/server crash that resulted in them getting removed.
