We have all these different characters involved with the void, but who was the original person that brought the void to be? Who was the forsaken one that opened the portal that has affected Runeterra? Wouldn't you think there would be a character long before the prophet, the creatures, or even the void walker? Who's behind all this chaos? Would be pretty wild if Kassidin's daughter had discovered it, malzahar corrupted her into going into it kassidin went after her, but got spat back out malzahar then disappears only to get lured to the original void that was opened (by kassidin's daughter) in which she gives him power to spread the void all over runterra as she begins to release these unspeakable creatures (i.e. cho, rek, etc.), but before she could bestow these powers upon malzahar he had to collect a certian crystal in which it would help the prophet control his powers but these crystals were guarded by these unspeakable creatures which were made from these powerful creatures to protect these powerful gems but the civilization has been asleep for ages and finding it will be hard, but he eventually does. But it's just an idea a little background that could bring a new story and possibly help tie in a champ like skarner. now I know the timing might be off, but that can always be changed as it has been for other champs that received updates on there lore. everyone wants this character and wants a better skarner lore so heres my idea.

Uhm how should Kassadins daughter be the original void portal-opener,if the first void portals were opened several thousand years ago?Long before Kassadin or his daughter were even born...

I have this theory that the Void isn't really a place, but a being. Like how in Greek mythology, Tartarus is both a place in the underworld and some kind'a primordial being and stuff.

Anyway, my theory says that the Void is trans-dimensional being, like Bard, and at one point it started… Spawning creatures out of itself. Or maybe creatures came to it, like meeps. Okay, so this ultra-powerful spirit began opening portals to other dimensions, then throwing void creatures through them. Why? Well, why does Bard protect the universe so completely? It may just be his nature to be a caretaker, and it may just be the Void's nature to conquer and destroy.

Btw, I don't believe that the Void controls them psychically, or even has a hive mind, I believe that the Void can simply direct its creatures, which then follow their instincts, which most of the time is to destroy.

In the Bloodlines story we get a few tidbits on Icathia. It sounds like they summoned Void beasties to try to fight off Azir's empire, but it went about as well as expected. Dunno if that was the first Void incursion on Runeterra, though.
