"Hear my voice, spare my ways, protect me from the Void"
The Black Ward description.
Do Killers pray to powers other than the Entity? Who protects Killers from the Void, is it possible?
What do you think?

I always assumed that was addressed to The Entity, but the possibility that it is talking to someone or something else is very interesting. However, there's no evidence of anything else that killers would pray to or that would protect them from The Void, and without something more concrete this is just speculation.

It might just be prayer to the Entity. If the killers know what the Void is then it makes even more sense. It's basically saying "Hear me, protect me, I'm still useful, don't throw me into the Void, I'll still kill for you and feed you."

What about white ward? Why would survs pray to Entity? And why being in the Void would be worse than in trials?

@Rattman being in the Void means the Survivors or Killers completely or nearly completely (like the Alchemist) lost their souls.
Killers are just scared of becoming the empty shells and pray for some powers to be protected.

I'm gonna agree with top post and to address lower one: If they are aware something is keeping them there and not inclined to let them go begging for whatever mercy it may grant is really all they can do. Whispers mentions that survivors are aware of the fog(Entity) having intentions of it's own BUT not always favoring the killers. This comes with two speculations. First, Survivors in question still have plenty of fight left in them and may be trying to bargain with Entity that they still have hope and fear for it to slowly feed off(while they attempt to escape the realm) and second, they have enough of whatever drives them that they still fear becoming hollowed shells and being sent to The Void. I see it as just begging for mercy.

I think it's more like the Prayer Beads addon (for keys, not spirit) in that it's just a prayer to nobody in particular.
So analysis would be:
"Hear my voice" - Obviously, please get this message
"Spare my ways" - Don't refuse to help me just because of my, uh, "occupation"
"Protect me from the void" - Probably not referring to The Void where hopeless Survivors go, probably instead referring to the idea of loss after Trials, specifically addons in this case. Essentially, "cut me a break."

I assumed it was addressed to the Entity (since that is the only god-like being they can pray to).
The Void is a separate dimension that is basically just that: a void. The Entity uses it to discard of beings that have no more use. Survivors with no more hope, and killers that are not useful to it. Eventually everyone is sent there.
The White ward is just saying, cut me a break, don't send me to a hell worse than this one.
@SpookyStabby addresses this quite well.

Well I think that the void is death, and the black ward is protecting them from death. But I don't really know.
