Rumors swirled about the Obsidian Library; it was said that they had gained access to techniques that allowed them to understand Aether better than the rest of the world.
In fact, the library housed ancient scrolls that had belonged to a past tribe that once lived in those mountains.
Aether had never completely vanished but had gradually thinned.
In one area in China, there once existed a tribe thousands of years ago that had lived within such thin pocket of Aether.
However, as the Aether disappeared, so did the tribe, and their knowledge faded into obscurity.
Nestled discreetly, the location of the Obsidian Library was kept in secrecy, propelling the country to a leading position in the global race for Aether mastery.
In response, universities quickly adapted, rolling out dedicated curriculums that taught about the 'God Particle' in a systematic and controlled manner.
