That's what magic is for! It is, after all, a fantasy game, eh?

Starspawn mage reports to God, "It is devoid of enemies inside, My Lord."
God of the Void sayeth unto sacrificial Vastness, "Goest thou over there and capture that. Do not return unless you succeed."
Vastness responds, "At once, My Lord."
A short while later the great God of the Void speaks to the mage, "You have done well, I shall not eat your brains -- today."

... end of story. Or it should be. Alas, the speedy Vastness smacks into the castle wall (rather than flying over it, must be residual summoning sickness), God is in a foul temper, and the hapless mage is being served as dessert. Sigh.
