All those who wander are not always lost
Speculation is always good :)
I am going to support the theory then that Void was the first God Hand. The reason? Well, Midland a thousand years ago seemed akin to Rome or Greece it seems. If the storyline currently is during Medieval Times, then a thousand years before that would be approximately the heydey of the Romans and Greeks. If you take a look at the architecture and the way people were dressed back in King Gaiseric's day, you will see it resembles Rome in some ways. Grand architecture.
Plus, Gaiseric had an 'empire.' He was obviously a great leader and military fighter. What could have existed a thousand years BEFORE this empire to facilitate God Hand anyways? I think Idea was waiting for people to become more civilized, build empire, and therefore, have more reason to use behelits for sacrifices and for power. Idea was waiting I believe for the moments in history when mankind would have a greater need and desire for power and revenge, during times of war and the building of cities, kingdoms and empires.
Slann and Void had a connection with Gaiseric, that is known. We still don't know anything about Ubik or Conrad, the 'lesser' God Hand. Because Void is God Hand's 'leader' and appears to be the most powerful, I think he was also the First God Hand.
If there WERE more previous God Hands I don't see how they could have all been sacrificed, killed, or gotten rid of somehow. I think God Hand started with Void and SK. And I believe the angels he called down and summoned were the Kings of the elements. Slann followed, then Conrad and Ubik ( interesting to see where they came from and who they were) and then Femto.
Now, there's only four of them now that Griffith has been reborn...I wonder if these four who are floating around looking for bodies are going to need a fifth one to complete the Hand?
