Aethers on Lumar are an especially parasitic strain focused on self-propagation through compressed aether spores.{{book ref|tress|28}}{{book ref|tress|31}}
They are especially unstable, with the smallest hint of water (or blood){{book ref|tress|12}} leading to uncontrolled expansion as it pulls Investiture from the Spiritual Realm,
There are "overgrown" aethers known as '''prime aethers''' that live on Lumar's twelve moons. The prime aethers propagate themselves by creating their spores and sending them down to Lumar. Although the moons do not have water, the prime aethers still need it to survive, so they choose people on Lumar as "[[spore eater]]s". These people host a manifestation of the aether within their bodies; the prime aethers progressively drain water from them, eventually leading to death.{{book ref|tress|28}} Spore eaters are protected by the aether that they are made to gestate, which actively tries to prevent the death of its host.{{book ref|tress|28}}{{book ref|tress|27}} The method through which the water is transferred to the respective prime aether is not known.{{book ref|tress|28}}
