In time, we began to despair, feeling the search was in vain. We considered remaining among the stars until [[X-Qar|a scout]] returned with news of a world unlike any other. When we beheld Aether for the first time, so great was her beauty that we forsook the stars forever to live upon her surface. From that day forth, the Luminoth were of Aether, our blessed paradise.<ref>{{cite|Our search for a home took us through the cosmos.

We settled in a mountain region first, in [[Sanctuary Fortress|cliffside dwellings]]. In time, we established settlements in the green forest of [[Torvus Bog|Torvus]] and in the fertile plains of [[Agon Wastes|Agon]]. A [[Great Temple]] was built between our three domains, a place of peace and a monument to our accomplishments. It was a time of harmony for our people.<ref>{{cite|Aether was a fertile, aged world with bountiful fields and oceans.

| style="{{border}} {{background}}" | The main Energy Controller was built in the Great Temple: three sub-controllers were built in Torvus, Agon, and Sanctuary. They collected the energy of Aether, then radiated it over the world to all who needed it. In time we came to call this precious energy the "Light of Aether". It brought peace and prosperity to the Luminoth.<ref>{{cite|The main Energy Controller was built in the Great Temple: three sub-controllers were built in Torvus, Agon, and Sanctuary.
