The only thing we know for sure is:
- The body holds 7 chakras, each of them divided in two (one light aspected and one shadow aspected)
- 6 of those are lesser chakras, and the 7th is the Seventh Chakra, the ultimate, that makes a monk master his full power and earn their title.
- Once you have mastered the 7 Chakras of your sect (light or shadow), you can start to open the 7 other mirrored chakras of the opposite sect, a priori the most common method being, directly fighting and confronting their members.
- As it is always the case with the 7th Chakra, the mirrored 7th (so, the mythical 14th) is incredibly arduous to unlock and is something of legend.
- Chakras are valves regulating internal aether. The more you open them, the more powerful you get (enough to give you a decisive edge even against someone with just one less than you).
- The monks technics are not linked to the aspect of their sects. Both sects basically teach the exact same thing. They just don't open the same aspected chakras.
- We know how light aspected chakras are opened: through old battlefield sites and places filled with turmoil, rich in aether traces from such events.
- We don't know how shadow aspected chakras are opened. Maybe the same way, maybe not. But if the same way, there must be something different somewhere obviously.
