The Importance of Nuance
The values of Esper civilization, decided following the end of the Chaos War, had been chosen not without difficulty, after sometimes long and tedious, yet essential, discussions about points and subjects that had never truly been addressed before. The revelation of the StarDust, as well as the existence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, had…

What Will the World Look Like for Future Generations
If the answer to this question can only be a matter of supposition, one thing is certain: it is the choices made today that will shape the future for generations to come.

Global Understanding Impossible Without Compromise
This was the conclusion that now seemed obvious to everyone, following the global disaster of the Chaos War. No understanding on a planetary scale would be possible without compromise. And the world before the war was far from being a world where making compromises came naturally. On the contrary, by exacerbating individualism, it had become…

The Importance of Children’s Education
If there was one thing that all the Esper children on the planet shared, it was their natural ability to learn new things quickly and to retain the values they learned for the rest of their lives. Obviously, these values can evolve over time, but for a child whose values have not yet been established,…
