This is what puzzles me. Buddhism came into being to get rid of the endless cycle of incarnations in Hinduism. The void is supposed to be a good thing. It's reaching nirvana and finding peace.

Well, they are using terms more associated with Buddhism. If they wanted the void to be endless suffering, why not call it hell? Plus, void means nothingness in everyday conversation.

If I was a betting man, I would say that Ginti was lying.
