Aether Online sounded like Alex's dream. Now, it's his nightmare.

After winning a prize, Alex is one of the first people to play Aether Online, the worlds first full immersion VRMMO. Alex quickly learns that once you're in, you can't get out.

Trapped in the Aether Lands, Alex must become an Aether Knight to survive. Struggling to survive in a world under siege, Alex must learn to fulfil his new role, hunting the deadly machine beasts known as Machina for parts. Every kill brings him new materials, new equipment to forge, each a small step towards becoming more powerful.
