Who Is Ether? | Everbound Lore

Lurking deep beneath the western sea of Relias, beyond the reach of rational minds, is a magic older than the sea itself. In modern day, most only know of it as The Leviathan, though some just call it Death. In truth, Ether is neither. He is a Zenith, a god of the land of Relias. The master of the Void. He was here when this world was formed and, unlike his peers, He will be there when it ends.

Most are unaware of Ether’s true nature. To them, the Zeniths are nothing but myth. Fictions designed to free struggling minds from the pressing weight of uncertainty. Where did we come from, and why? Only the Zeniths knew, and we should trust in their Vision. Of course, by now they must all be gone. Surely, we have none left to bear beyond their descendants, the Nadir. So named as to underscore their inferiority to the grand beasts who first gave them form. The Leviathan is a great and terrible creature, but surely nothing more. Just an overgrown sea monster.

That is all I will share of Ether’s lore for now. It’s not too much of a reveal, as this much will be available from the outset. Ether is the creature I was sculpting around the middle of last year before I took a break. I am working on finishing him up alongside my efforts to sculpt out the map. Hopefully that will come with some concept art as well!

Thanks for reading! I’ll see you in the next one.
