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 138

The voice was melodic and echoed through the cavern. Instantly all four of us were on guard, and narrowed my eyes in direction of the voice, but frowned as I failed to see anything. The room was empty as far as I could tell, and the voice was coming from the direction of the chair, which was empty.

"Hello?" I called out.

"Well, you four are certainly energetic." The voice sounded amused. "There's no need for worry, I won't harm you, in fact, I've been watching you. You're here for the girl, Hope."

"You've seen her?" Misty asked, taking a step inside.

"Misty!" I hissed.

"What?" she replied. "She said she wouldn't hurt us, and she had information of Hope. Besides what stepping in going to do?"

"I can understand the caution, Aiden," The voice said. "But it is not needed, please step in so that you may be assured I have no desire to hurt you."

"Where are you?" Zirani asked with a frown. "I can't sense you."
