Book content

...the presence of Aether, the Fifth Element, also called Blood of the Existence by Hieronites, is one of the few indisputable facts that we can assert about the inner workings of the cosmos. But how much do we know about the actual properties of this phenomenon?

Despite what ordinary folk might think, no sorcerer can breathe fire or petrify their foes by simply waving a hand or uttering a special word. In reality, these motions only serve as means of giving a spell its basic form, channeling devastating flows of Aether energy, which in turn materialize as magical fire, ice, lightning, and what have you.

The ability to feel and control Aether is what we consider to be a magical talent, an affinity for mastering all things mystic. It's worth noting that interactions with arcane energies mostly happen intuitively, and hardly any mage can articulate the exact effect of their actions.

Aether is akin to an all-pervasive sea, yet its existence is a secret to most. However, with enough skill it's possible to purposefully manipulate its raging waters to either empower your spells with pure primordial energy or dispel any short-term incantations, forcing the Element to recede like an ebbing tide.

And even though Aether can't be directly observed, not even by arcanists, its influence on our world is way too tangible to ignore...
