Across the Void Theory Page

Welcome to the Across the Void theory page. This is a place where you can discuss confirmed, debunked, and unconfirmed theories about the Across The Void series.

Current and Unconfirmed Theories

 * Pax and Eos will become enemies - Due to supporting opposing sides of the war, it is believed that Pax and Eos will become enemies in the future.
 * Sol and Artemis will become villains: It is theorized that both Artemis and Sol could be Villains in the series. Artemis comes across as self-centered and only caring about her ships instead of the well-being of her crew and passengers. It is believed that she may have personally killed pilots who failed her in the past. Sol has a very callous attitude towards the wounded Apri rescued in Chapter 5 and it is believed that he and Artemis will have a relationship similar to Pierce and Chief Walsh. Some fans also disliked Sol's attitude when he told Your Character that they "overstepped" given that a Captain outranks a First Officer. His antagonistic behavior continued in Chapter 6.
 * Eos will become a villain: There is a small theory that Eos may end up becoming a villain. Some fans are offput by his hypocritical behavior that he justifies a war crime commited by the Vanguard but refers to the Jura as "glorified murderers".
 * The Attackers are an instigator in the war: It is believed that the criminals who attacked the Atlas and bombed the Senate building are manipulating both the Vanguard and the Jura as pawns to their own advantage.

Confirmed Theories

 * Across The Void will only be one book: With the removal of Book 1, it is believed that this series will only be one book. This is likely due to the large amount of negative reviews this series has received. Several players criticize it for barely focusing on the war and being forced to help haughty passengers, finding the love interests uninteresting, barely playing as your own character, and find Pax and Eos completely intolerable. Pax is often viewed as immature and forces her sibling to help her. Eos, on the other hand, is viewed as having a holier-than-thou attitude and is viewed by some as intentionally wanting to make his sibling look bad. On May 13, 2019 PB confirmed via Twitter that this book is a standalone.

Debunked Theories

 * The real General is still dead: some players started theorizing after Chapter 16 that the person who contacted Pax is not the real General but a Void impostor, playing the Vanguard and Jura once more. This was debunked when the General's identity was revealed to be Artemis in the final chapter of the book.
