The Void was a place where avatars who broke the Terms of Service could be sent as a time out. It was originally just one region you couldn't escape from, but a later version was created that was an endless maze that looped back on itself that you couldn't escape. Only Oracles had the power to send you to The Void or remove you from it.

	~~In 1993, Fujitsu had shown interest~~ in ~~bringing [https://wiki.renoproject.org/index.php/Fujitsu_Habitat Fujitsu Habitat] to~~ the ~~west. The plan was to backport Fujitsu Habitat to Windows computers.

The original creators~~ of ~~Habitat, Chip Morningstar and Randy Farmer were both onboard and had already done this once before~~.		This was originally the origins of WA in general and whilst it is intertwined with the Dreamscape, it is better to keep them seperate. This particular section will eventually focus on the origins of the Dreamscape itself.
