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.

Chapter 245

I felt panic from my bonds with my lovers but it wasn't just because beasts were attacking but also because they were worried about each other and me. I sent back a mental message, letting them know I was alright as I moved my focus from the lost queen to what was happening outside.

When I made it outside it wasn't to see a view of a vast desert, at least not unobstructed. Sand immediately smacked against my face, and if I hadn't been at the third level, I knew it would've scraped my skin as it was going fast.

"Sandstorm?" I said it aloud, but Zirani must have been reading my mind.

"Combined technique," she replied, and her voice sounded strained. "The beasts made it for cover. It's an ambush."
