Aetant

Aetant is a fictional entity that appears in the fantasy novel "The Obsidian Labyrinth" by author Kaelen Thorne. It is described as an ancient, primordial force that existed before the creation of the known world. Aetant is not a physical being in the traditional sense, but rather a pervasive consciousness or energy that influences the fabric of reality. Its nature is often described as both chaotic and benevolent, depending on the perspective of those who interact with it.

The primary role of Aetant in the narrative is that of a cosmic antagonist or a source of immense, untamed power. It is sought after by various factions within the story for its ability to reshape existence, but its true intentions are inscrutable. Characters who attempt to harness Aetant's power often face profound and unpredictable consequences. The Obsidian Labyrinth itself is rumored to be a manifestation or a prison for Aetant, though this remains a subject of debate among scholars within the fictional world. Its presence is felt through subtle shifts in magic, unexplained phenomena, and the lingering echoes of primordial creation. The ultimate fate of Aetant and its relationship to the established order of the world are central mysteries explored throughout the novel.
