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 254

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes was a clear blue sky, though I didn't get to focus on it for long as a sharp pain blossomed in my head. I let out a groan and pressed a hand to my brow as I heard a shuffling sound nearby.

The pain didn't last for long and when it had mostly faded, I slowly turned my head in the direction of the sound and found myself staring into the eyes of a scared-looking woman.

I frowned and tilted my head as I tried to understand where I was. Then in a flood, it all came back and I bolted to my feet, quickly glancing around.

The girl stepped back and spoke a few words in an unfamiliar language, but I ignored her as I stared in shock at my surroundings. I probably should have realized it the moment I hadn't felt the biting chill that the burning desert had at night or its scorching heat in the day.
