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 48

Training began almost immediately the next day. Zirani had already been impatient to get things going and she only gave me time to let Misty and Sandra know that I'd be out and to let Sandra know Zirani would speak to her later.

Once that was done, I had a quick breakfast, packed some rations in my ring, and set off. The first thing we needed was a secluded area, hopefully with a fair amount of space so sparring and techniques would be easy to do.

It took a bit, but eventually, we found a small clearing closed in by a thick area of trees on one side and a large cliff face on the other. The path into the clearing was very obvious so we'd immediately know if someone was coming and Zirani would be letting out green pulses every now and then to check.

"All right first thing's first, I want to do a quick spar to test your current skills and strength, I have an idea, but it never hurts to be more accurate."
