Void refers to Griffith's dream as the 'back alley path' so the lofty castle in the sky is inseparable from a street orphan's unrealistic fantasies. To even attempt is folly because it goes against all the obvious known rules about the world. Inwardly Griffith knew it was bullshit but he wanted to try anyway even while everyone else got swept up into it and was destroyed along the way. The sacrifice is just the ugly truth of the road traveled no longer shied away from.
