For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

It appears to create gravitational pull in whatever direction the hilt is pointed. My guess is it only works in a certain area around the sword, otherwise the universe would have already imploded from all gravity everywhere pulling in the same direction.

Assuming all interplanetary gravity is also gone, all stars would eventually travel in (roughly) the same direction but at different speed. There would be some collisions but I don't think the mass would be imploding.

What happens when the stars eventually reach relativistic speeds?
