What's the deal with beings if uncreation being able to use the cold. There seems to be a bunch of correlations I've noticed but haven't been able to cohesively put it all together.

• So if I remember The cold is just a skill/discipline developed by the Brilhado that other people/races learned. But The Galin can use it, which with the brilhado being under him makes sense I guess. But does that mean one day The Galin was like, "hey teach me that real quick"? I wouldn't think so, so I would assume there would be some reason why he seems to know and use it where we have not seen any other gods use it to lead me to believe that he just knows it because he's a God.

• There is always a narrative allusion to the concept of a cold-ness to the void and multiple forms of media/literature. This cold-ness more referencing the indifference or lack of remorse, lack of anything that would generate heat, pointlessness etc. Which alludes to one of the primary (but not only) uses of the cold. The void damage is also referenced in AQ as:
quote:

Void is essentially damage that comes from rewriting reality or manipulating the stuff of creation/the Void (reducing things to the primal Void and rebuilding them from that infinite sea of possibility into what you desire or just reducing things to that primal void and letting reality reassert itself (which will put things back together just in a certain amount of agony) or dropping raw Void energy onto your opponent and watching as reality melts), its all elements and none at all, everything and nothing, the absence and potential of all things, the moments between time, etc.

These statements sound similar to the concept of uncreation. Which one of the ways you can get to the void is by clicking on the moon in Granemor, which just so happens to have the same face as The Galin. With the infinity of manipulating reality into nothing, does that mean the void IS the Galin, or his domain?

• Absolix is a being of uncreation and has immunity to the cold as well as an inherent ability to use it. Are there multiple forms of the cold that have similar effects, or is this the same cold? Absolix is "somehow" Ryuusei's child, which the only thing I can think of is that he was caused due to the point in time that The Galin possessed Ryuusei.

The Void is a dimension that underlies all others, one with exceptionally hostile laws of existence (As covered in Dark Accession). Curious phenomena related to a given world occur within the border reaches of access points to it, these being the limited margins before the ravages of this realm are present in full force, but none relate to The Cold.

This dimension and The'Galin are completely separate. The latter is a deity who was formerly a Tjelian human, brought up to the status of uncreation by Lorithia following their time together and his tragic death (The red moon is an omen and at times visual manifestation, not the deity's actual form). This is covered throughout the various sagas related to the Devourer, albeit more sporadically due to having been a major reveal at the time. However, there IS a deity that resides in the border reaches of the Void, seen in Burning Solstice - The Question.

There is therefore no correlation as stated in this case, but you may be interested in learning why Void damage sounds related to uncreation. The reason that Void as a damage type (Essentially chaotic ontological damage, similarly covered in Dark Accession) seems to have such ties is that, while the mechanical element doesn't, the dimension itself absolutely does. The energy that permeates the Void is essentially unaligned mana, not yet attuned to an element. It is raw, untamed potential, making it a wellspring for creators whose will can withstand extracting power from such a hostile dimension -- Primarily greater gods.

As of Absolix, the Absolution saga in Granemor covers his creation. Ryuusei essentially uncreated the fact that Absolix never existed, thus creating him in a roundabout manner. Roundabout enough, in fact, to be rather risky. Cartwright took some major risks to get around the fact that he couldn't possibly have employed actual creation, and was only able to achieve this through his experience as an agent of the greatest uncreator.

Wow.. uncreating non existence.. seems OP as heck.

So I'm assuming Ryuusei untreated all of the qualities that didn't exist into Absolix like that he couldnt use the Cold?
