Aether Beasts

Long ago a great calamity struck the earth, destroying much of it and merging what remained with pieces of other worlds. With these worlds came Aether, a new form of energy that can allow one to transcend the bounds of normal mortality and human limitations. In a world where humans absorb the essence of aether beasts to gain power, Aiden Hawke joins the class of humans known as arcanists, people who defeat aether beasts and absorb their essence into cores they forge within themselves, and who infuse themselves with the aether that permeates the world around them to increase the power of their body and mind. However, unlike most, Aiden will find that he holds a unique gift and that his journey as an arcanist will not be so simple.

I pulled aether from my core as I dodged to the right. A barrage of water droplets shot past me, and as I shot towards him, my layered bark amour formed around. I used aether burst to give myself speed, and I closed the distance between us within seconds.

He swiped at me with his right hand, aiming for my neck, and a crescent blade of water followed the movement. It was an elegant technique formed from an elegant pattern, but not that useful in this case, and all it took was a push with the back of my left hand to move it off course. It covered a large range and would have been perfect if he were faster and for groups of people or for those who moved erratically, but I was only one person, and my movement was anything but erratic. I moved with lethal efficiency, and speed.
