A Change of Air

Joriko, our very dear companion the red panda, had gradually become interested in the effects of consuming Aether, the life source of the planet.

Learning more about its consequences, as well as the efforts that would be required, made anyone who understood the problem very anxious about the future…

And if Joriko, until now caught in his addictions, had also been a pawn benefiting from the advantages of magic, he had eventually come to realize the clear importance of paying attention to the problems created by his own civilization.

“Now that I understand, it is impossible to look away.”

“I can still soothe my mind thanks to nature, but will this still be possible for future generations…”
