'''Dark Aether''' is a parallel dimension created on the planet [[Aether]] by a [[Leviathan]] impact. The dark dimension is the home of the [[Ing]], a hostile species [[Samus Aran]] encounters in ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''. Details of Dark Aether's formation are not mentioned throughout ''Echoes''. The Leviathan, together with the natural energy harvested by the [[Luminoth]] were somehow responsible for its creation. Landmarks on Aether and Dark Aether tend to mirror each other. A select few objects will actually move due to events in the other dimension. | '''Dark Aether''' is a parallel dimension created on the planet [[Aether]] by a [[Leviathan]] impact.

Since Aether was split, it's planetary energy was split, as well. If one dimension was to gain control of all the energy, the other would perish. This provoked a lengthy war between the Luminoth and Ing, with the Luminoth on the losing hand by the time Samus arrived. Energy was exchanged via a Transfer Module, which bound to Samus after she defeated a [[Alpha Splinter#Dark Alpha Splinter|Dark Alpha Splinter]]. Due to this bind, and Samus' lack of a functional ship, she agreed to help the Luminoth leader, [[U-Mos]], reclaim the lost energy in the different regions of Dark Aether. | Since Aether was split, it's planetary energy was split, as well.

To access Dark Aether, [[Samus Aran|Samus]] must use portals found scattered throughout Aether. These can either occur naturally or mechanically generated by Luminoth technology. As the Ing do not have the technology to create portals, it is uncertain how they travel from Dark Aether to Aether. | To access Dark Aether, [[Samus Aran|Samus]] must use portals found scattered throughout Aether.
