However, the most compelling account of the Primordial Void comes from Veila Rheinschild, who is the only Raposa known to have spent considerable time in the Void and return to reality with a relatively intact soul.

Upon her soul becoming trapped within the [[User:BakiDance/Codex Perditus|Codex Perditus]], the tome became overcharged with the combined magic of the [[Book of Life]] and sought to return to a stable energy state. Within a moment of the Codex's creation it de-materialized, leaving the Raposa reality and becoming a separate entity within the Void.

Within a moment of the Codex's creation it de-materialized, leaving the Raposa reality and becoming a separate entity within the Void. For centuries, Veila's soul remained entombed within the Codex in a state between life and death. Only for a few hours during the magic epoch—a time when magic levels are at their highest point in a century—could the Codex return to the Raposa world in a stable state. It was during one of these epochs that [[User:BakiDance/Manere|Manere]], a citizen Raposa from [[User:BakiDance/ForestStream|ForestStream]], happened upon the Codex Pertitus and destroyed it, releasing Veila's soul from the tome.
Veila described her time within the Void as a vast cloudy expanse of darkness and stars, with an eclipsed moon-like object acting as the only real light source upon floating islands of rock. However, Veila noted that there are other spaces within the infinite darkness, and that the area she was trapped within was nothing like the one she was a part of before her creation.

As made evident from the journals of the Genesis Raposa, the Primordial Void is the source of all Raposa souls.
As made evident from the journals of the Genesis Raposa, the Primordial Void is the source of all Raposa souls. Before a Raposa is born into the world, their soul is separated from the consciousness of the Void and sent to inhabit the body of the Raposa, giving it life. Although the Genesis Raposa all seem to remember this process to an extent—based on their recounts of life before they were created—Raposa who were born of natural means do not possess such memories.
Considering a Raposa's soul is what grants them the ability to manipulate magic around them, it makes sense that the soul is derived from the Void, as it is the innate source of all magic.
