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…

Since he had freed himself from his addictions, he also now knew that not releasing this kind of anxiety could lead to falling back into the constraints of addictive behaviors.

Joriko was fortunate to live in the land of the Earth element. The color associated with this element was a soft orange that naturally brought a sense of comfort.

Mountain landscapes, bordering the sea.

Rivers flowing through valleys.

Admiring nature made it possible to reconnect with the planet that welcomed all the creatures and living beings that inhabited it.

The beauty of nature contrasted with what the civilization of the Espers had become, using their magic as if unaware of its consequences.

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…”

    To act or not to act

    That is the question. Or more precisely, why should we act—or not? I understand you may be skeptical about trying to do things for other adults, who themselves have the choice to act or not.
