Yeah, a sort of contained, miniature pocket dimension connected to the Semblance, that is accessed through the darkness pits. In a way, the true nature of the Semblance is being able to turn darkness into a doorway to that pocket dimension, and being able to drag things into it is just a side effect of the nature of said gateways.

As for how long a person with Aura could be contained... considering he'd be able to use his Semblance on himself, and would do so in order to literally "dissapear" into shadows (possibly travel along them as well), I imagine he'd be able to contain a single person for a little while, assuming he's at full Aura levels himself. I could always explain it away by saying that the stamina cost for bringing himself into his void dimension is much less than it is for dragging others into it. While I do intend to differentiate Aura costs between dragging in inanimate objects and living creatures, beyond that I'm not certain. I could always say that it's easier to use it against Grimm and inanimate objects (things that don't have souls), but not only is it hard to explain how a Semblance would be able to differentiate such things, but it kinda wouldn't make sense with him being able to use it on himself just fine.
