The term “Void Entity” refers to none other than The Knight in two different transformations they take. Each of these transformations occur in different endings of Hollow Knight, with Void Given Focus being an “ascension” of Void Given Form through Godhome. Though they act similarly and share a need for Void Heart to be achieved in the first place, their attributes and appearances differ from each other’s.

Through the possession of Void Heart, the Shade Beast will recognize The Knight with a new name. Should The Knight strike their head with the Awoken Dream Nail, the following Dream Nail dialogue will appear:

"...Lord of Shades..."

Should The Knight not possess Void Heart, however, an alternative Dream Nail dialogue will be shown:

"...Void... Power... Without unity..."

Together, both dialogues suggest that The Knight is now in control of Void. as it is no longer without unity. Ths is also supported by the title itself, 'Lord of Shades', referencing Shades, all of which are made of Void.

Lastly, each form correlates with a new description and shape of the Void Idol.

Void given Form
With a guise not unlike The Knight’s Shade, and with writhing tentacles on their back, Void Given Form is achieved in the ending Dream No More ending. With assistance from The Hollow Knight’s Shade, Void Given Form swiftly defeats The Radiance with lashes from their tentacles. Following this, they proceed to consume her.

A statue of this entity is seen in the Hall of Gods after defeating all bosses on ascended difficulty. The following description corresponds to the Void Idol acquired with the statue's appearance:

''“Rare artifact from a time before Hallownest. Contains a drop of liquid from the Abyss.”''

Void given Focus
With a guise far removed from The Knight, Void Given Focus is achieved in the ending Embrace the Void ending.

They are first heard in a cutscene that plays just after The Knight defeats Pure Vessel in the Pantheon of the Knight. After The Radiance’s roar is heard, this creature lets out their own as well.

In the ending Embrace the Void, Void Given Focus towers over Absolute Radiance before killing her on their own. Soon after, they descend to the throne Godseeker sits upon as they cover Godhome in Void. Godseeker stares in awe as Void Given Focus wraps their tentacles around her. Additionally, in Godseeker Mode, Godseeker refers to The Knight as “God of Gods”. This is Absolute Radiance’s prior title, as The Knight defeated her in Embrace the Void.

A statue of this entity is seen in the Hall of Gods after defeating all bosses on radiant difficulty. The following description corresponds to the Void Idol acquired with the statue's appearance:

''“Rare artifact from a time before Hallownest, its spires twined in a unified form. Contains a large amount of liquid from the Abyss, perfectly still.”''

Trivia

 * Prior to v1.4.2.8, the text for the statue in the Hall of Gods for Void given Focus was "Void given mind."
