Our take on Aether Field
Rather than centering on mastering spells through a broad fantasy adventure, the story focuses on an accidental first spell and the effort to repeat and control it. Its scope is compact, with several choices that personalize the experience only slightly.
What is Aether Field?
William assumes he has no magical talent, but accidentally performs a spell.
To earn official mage status, he tries to recreate the spell and master his powers, with help from the girls whose actions awakened them. The narrative follows six elementalists as they explore the nature of magic and learn about themselves. Set in a parallel world where magic exists, the story offers a distinctive view of its use and rules. Several choices adjust parts of the experience. A playthrough takes about 2 hours, with reading speed affecting the total time.
