This is what I had with my Lore Collection, on that you can access through the link in my signature below.

When we die, it is believed that the shock separates our spirits from our corporeal forms. Or bodies are the broken down and are absorbed back into the aetherial river, while the soul is left to journey to its final destination in afterlife. Some call this “returning to the Lifestream.â€â€”Nicia
It is said that aetheryte is the solid manifestation of the planet’s lifeblood, aether, and that by touching it, the aether which makes up our bodies resonates with that contained in the crystal. This is called “attunement.†Normally, when one’s body is reduced to aether, it will naturally gravitate to the location with which it resonates the greatest-or one’s “home point.†This is why upon losing consciousness in battle, many wake to find themselves back at an aetheryte. In other words, aetheryte act as lodestones, assuring that the body, in its aetherial form, is not lost to the pull of the greater flow.—Nicia
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Hydaelyn you speak of... I am assuming you are talking about the Hydaelyn you encountered in the Main Scenario Quest. The Hydaelyn is refered by Kan-E-Senna as "Mothercrystal". To my believed, that can only be access by the power of Echo. To be safe, I will not spoiled any details about that if you haven't get far enough to the story line. In my Dialogue collection so far, there isn't a connection between Hydaelyn or the Echo with Aether.
I hope this titbits of information help you.
