So I could give them that. But void elves are normal blood elves, who got corrupted by the void / ethereals. In the scenario we see the expedition is mostly made of mages and warlocks, but who said there couldn't be a death knight among them? If they can be monks and hunters and all other classes that aren't present in the scenario. I can agree blood elf paladins couln't become void elves, and if they did, they would lose their power over the light, as these are opposites (same a Jace the demon hunter tells you because he infused himself with the fel, he can no longer use arcane powers he could in the past, because these powers are opposite). And lorewise blood elf death knights should be more common than draenei or tauren etc. since Arthas ravaged Quel'thalas and killed big portion of their population (possibly turning many into his undead servants). And since the studies of the void start from the journal of Dark'khan Dra'thir (however it's spelled) who was actually serving Arthas and the scourge, I could see it being compelling to blood elf death knights, as death knights don't shun using weapons of their enemies against them, and that includes their former masters. If Dark'khan could study the void, that also means undeath is not a preventing factor. Contrary to it being preventing factor to serve the light, or at least big obstacle.
