The Inkwells
They are magical Inkwells. Their magic does not hold by itself. It needs $AETHER inside them, or it fails. That is why they must be filled.
Each one must be kept filled.
Each Inkwell is a vessel. $AETHER is the essence that keeps it alive.
They need both. One without the other is already empty.
If it is not refilled, it goes dry and dies.
If $AETHER runs dry, the Inkwell burns.No revival. No reprint.

$AETHER is dark essence. It is the dark pour that fills every Inkwell. No Inkwell lives without it.

Once an Inkwell burns, it is gone. There is no return. There is no fixing.
