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 43

After the talk with Elder Kaylin, the three of us headed back to our tents to get sleep, well Sandra and I did, apparently, Misty didn't need sleep and was somewhat nocturnal in nature. She could act both in the day and night, but apparently, she felt safer in the night, which I guess made sense considering chances of being seen or anyone finding out what she was were lower in the night.

We woke up only hours later and to my surprise, the camp wasn't as silent as I expected. It was much quieter than it had been, but there were still dozens of people moving about and to my relief the guards had been doubled and were actively patrolling the perimeter, not to mention that I spotted groups of guards heading out, probably to do scout work.

I didn't know if the number of guards was normal or if it was because of what we'd told them, but either way, it was definitely a good thing.
