I see, so you would go with the bard using the power of light, which could work.
If the Bard used the light for it's powers, we could also get a spec that uses the shadow/void with a guitar, especially since Light and Void play off the mind and music can influence one's thoughts and feelings or express them.
I think though, that if they added a bard cla/ss, maybe make it nature/element related with spirits. Maybe a hero cla/ss to explain why it's not a thing already, but that the one you play is a unique case. Someone who uses nature and elemental spirits with their music. In BDO, the shai has these spirits who pop up and do things based on her music, for the flute that buffs allies, the guitar that debuffs enemies and the drums that summon either earth or fire spirits to do dmg and stuns. Not saying it has to be like that, but a bard who plays music and the spirits with them react based on the music played could be really interesting imo.
