Not quite sure why but The Void keeps on making me think of William Blakes "The Tiger"

TIGER, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

Pathologic left me thinking over lots of things once I'd finished all three charaters, most probably my all time favourite game.

So what kind of things, images, bits and bobs does The Void make everyone think of?

Nice verse, Hicks.

The Void reminds me of many things, but I'll mention just one for now. It's Pleasantville, an old US movie which I've recently seen. The message is far too simple compared to that of the Void of course, but still...)
