Fairy Tale Spotlight: Void Siphoning

Void siphoning is the mystical practice of energy manipulation and farming by utilizing a singularity. In the case of, say, a black hole, all matter, light, and even time is drawn into a single point where it is assumed to be lost forever. The very act of this happening leads to an abundance of movement and flow which can be perceived as energy. This movement can be siphoned off and collected in the same way wind farms collect wind.

Being as there are no black holes anywhere nearby, the high priest--let's say--would need to construct one himself. Although the idea of creating a singularity sounds very dangerous, the high priest would do his best to keep it contained. Even so, it will be destructive and many sacrifices would be made by it. Void siphoning would then take place during the process, producing a ton of energy to be used in whatever way the high priest wants, up to but not excluding immortality.

This is something you see in high fantasy fairy tales quite often. You usually have some sort of priest or wizard trying to perform a rite that will cause much destruction for the sake of gaining power from it. That's basically what void siphoning is.

Another way to look at the concept is to derive energy from nothing at all. In the amazing video game "The Room," the occult was trying to perform rites using a strange element called Null. Null is just a fancy word that means "There's nothing here." Void siphoning.

In Shawn O'Toole's massive scifi-fantasy series "Strange Galaxy," an alien race called the Penumbrans used void siphoning in various different forms as the base of their magic. That was basically how they operated as a culture as well. Very cool.

Next time you see something like this in a movie or a story, you can assign a name to it now. Hope this helps broaden your view of the mystical arts often used in fairy tales... and possibly real life as well!
