You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of Void mage spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Void mage spell list. When you do so, choose a number of Void mage spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + your void mage level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you are a 3rd-level void mage, you have four 1st-level and two 2nd-level spell slots. With a Intelligence of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination. If you prepare the 1st-level spell cure wounds, you can cast it using a 1st-level or 2nd-level slot. Casting the spell doesn’t remove it from your list of prepared spells.
