Incorrect Lesson

Ning listened to Sherry explain about Aether and couldn't help but shake his head at how wrong she was. 

Aether was unique, yes, but the reasons she gave for Aether being unique was nothing but a lie. Or at least it was misinformation due to a lack of knowledge about the fundamentals of the universe. 

Aether was a rare type of energy that could only be found on some planets in the universe. Ning didn't expect a teacher to have knowledge of this so he said nothing.

What he didn't expect her to be wrong on was that Aether could have Solid, Liquid, or Gaseous forms. 

That was just plain wrong. Aether had none of those forms. Aether was just a type of energy. Like all the other types of energies, it held no physical form. 

What it did do was find a certain solution of liquid, native to worlds like these and inhabit it. That small, violet liquid was what the world really knew as Aether, when in fact Aether was just energy that inhabited that liquid.
