The lore says that, during the Great Void War a group of human escaped here in Ionia and then the Vastayan were born.
I wonder, what dose this " Great Void War" mean? Icathia Void War? Or the Targon Void War?
or, maybe the Freljord Void Watcher War?
Actually, Icathia Void War can't extend so much that people fled to Ionia. So, I think it means the Feljord Void War.
I need an accurate answer now, I am doing a video. So urgent

Not sure you can get an accurate answer. Timelines are still a little off, League Lore isn't like Dragon Age where most lore is actually dated by year, Runeterra has more vague 'This happened'. The issue comes down to Vastayan's ages and the timeline. These species had to develop and change over a lot time right? Split into clans and species, move away from Ionia (see Nami) and many other things. I doubt that this happened within just a few generations but thousands of years.
Although only from the wikia page: "Remains unexplained how the Great Void War happened, as it was prior to both the Watcher's arrival to Runeterra and the conception of the Voidborns they created."
Voidborns were apparently created in response to Lissandra imprisoning the Watchers.
Icathia Void stuff is really recent compared to Lissandra stuff as her stuff happened long before Shurima even existed. Most likely scenario is that the Great Void War was a Targonian response to Voidborns entering Runeterra's realm, it was the start of the demise of Targon as a mighty Empire and the 'humans' of that era fled to the opposite side of the area we know of, so Targon all the way to Ionia where they created the Vastaya.
But this is only speculation. sorry.
Great Void War most likely refers to the conflict with Targon.
The Void War was the one in Icathia. It lasted quite a bit. The Freljordian wasn't really a war cause during the first battle Lissandra backstabbed everyone and sacrificed the Iceborn army to freeze the Watchers in True Ice. The Targon vs Void thing was not even menitoned and if it was it was just briefly I don't think it refeeres to the Great Void War. Go making your vid hope I helped
I think its the War between Targon and The void. The battle in shurima was mostly just pushing them back and closing the portals. Nothing "Great" as the title says
I think its still a story not yet released. maybe in the future well see it. I think its a catastrophe that cause runetera people(even if they're not aware) join forces by eliminating the void with targon in the past. I also think that it has to do with the arrival of the watchers and lissandra's older times with her sisters. Maybe voids first arrival to runeterra and runterra's first apocalypse that they have overcame.
I even have a theory that Cho'Gath was the primary commander of this void war and he once made a continent became his . He is currently living in his kingdom, a continent(Dark Continent which I named). He was gonna conquer other continents but because of another catastrophe(yeah to nerf him and to balance the story) he was nerf and is hibernating at the moment. Little did he know, he was sleeping in a long time and little did people know, that this beast will end the life of runeterra once again.
The GREAT Void War actually does refer to the first war in Targon where the Aspects beat the Void at the dawn of civilization pre-Shurima pre-Freljord
We don't know if this is still canon at this time the lore is still in a state of flux.
Lissandra unleashed the Void again and then froze them THEN Icathia uunleashed the Void a third time
It's either the war with Icathia, some yet unknown conflict with the void and someone else or most likely, The Sunborn sealing the void rifts and corrupting them into the Darkin
