WHY???
Because it never "died" in the first place.
My theory on that: The Iranch is either indigenous to the light void or otherwise fundamentally linked to it. This creates a distinction in how it is affected by it. Other beings, such as... well, every non-iranch really, has the rules of the void enforced upon them. So they die, the light void forbids dying, and they come back to life. The Iranch, on the other hand, obeys them. So, the light void forbids dying, and hence, the Iranch is fundamentally incompatible with death. Blowing up, being crushing, etc is just severe injury, from which it partially recovers. Perhaps by respawning, but that doesn't mean it's ever truly dead, because that simply cannot happen.
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss, if the old boss had been an octahedron, which they weren't.
