When the ritual finishes, a Void Orb is summoned.

Voidwoken players are attuned to the Void, reducing damage dealt by 99% and allowing them to redirect Void Orbs for 40 sec.
In Normal difficulty, Voidwoken players are afflicted with Void-Touched when the Void Orb is eliminated.

Revile. If the orb touches Queen Azshara, a ritual obelisk, or the edges of the chamber, it triggers
