Sorry if I wasn't more accurate but I was actually wondering if there was anything shown ingame or the dungeons like Tam Tara that would show Eda to have any kind of weird void-esque powers of sorts?
We had her sacrificial blood wedding as the final battle in Tam Tara hard mode. I'm assuming whatever she'd been planning to do with a body would have been completed had she successfully killed Paiyo Reiyo and the Warrior of Light [and friends].
This is pure personal conjecture but... she was in grief about her love being killed. Trying to bring him back got the head possessed by a voidsent, which likely started manipulating her by claiming she is her love returned or something similar. The blood wedding was likely just a ploy for the voidsent to gain more aether/power for its own personal gain. So, a success would likely would've meant gaining that aether/power that - and whatever other negative things that would've led to.
What sort of negative things? A more powerful flying head, a bigger one, or maybe even a more powerful form maybe? More voidsent being brought from the Void? Or perhaps just more ventures of a similar ilk (blood anniversaries?) to drain more aether from the world, leading to a long string of mysterious disappearances? Exactly what the negative things would've been is hard to say, since they were prevented from happening in the first place.
