Most ships that sail the seas have sails and an aether engine, these engines provide momentum up water boundries, protect the ships from beasts and can even hide the ship if its being stalked.

The engines are powered by aetherite, crystals found in the water that have strong aether in them. Aetherite can be used to power ships and create aether-forged weapons.

Hmmm. How does the engine protect the ship and hide it? Magic, I'm guessing, but how does the application of it play out? Does it blast the beasts with pressurized water or something?

I'm guessing that aether-forged weapons are greater than their metallic counterparts, but how much? Is it just a durability difference, or do they have special abilities tied to them because of their aetheric nature?
