A fast pace of change : Shippu Jinrai

The End of the Chaos War came when the Five Great Elements used their most powerful spell together, all at once, revealing for the first time in the history of Esperia the existence of the StarDust.

From that moment on, the world finally understood the need for rapid change, having damaged its own planet more than enough.

While combining the Five Elements together brought the StarDust to life, they also discovered that they could mix their Elements in pairs.

The magic of Lightning and Wind combined was called Shippu Jinrai, or Fast Wind and Violent Thunder when translated.

This magic carried the message that empathy and compassion were to be developed by every Esper, moving with lightning speed and instantly reaching all of them.

The new realization that they could work together and use magic more efficiently than on their own led the Espers to naturally experiment and combine their efforts with the other Elements.

Shippu Jinrai was the union of Wind and Lightning, and it led to a fast pace of change for Esperia.

Combining even more Elements was also possible—and now you know what happens when they are all brought together, right? The StarDust.

    Taking Care of One’s Health

    As was so often the case, the Espers’ lack of self-awareness led them to neglect things that were nevertheless essential, and their own health was one of them. Many of them did not realise just how much they neglected their physical well-being, of course, but also their mental well-being, by making little effort to look…

    Overcoming Excessive Individualism

    Rebuilding Esperia required rethinking society from a new perspective, sometimes at the risk of questioning certain principles that had become the new foundations of a declining civilisation. For decades, the advancement of technology through the use of magic had allowed the Espers to become increasingly individualistic. Under the banner of personal freedom, everyone acted more…

    For the Children of the World

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, often reminded adult Espers who sometimes lacked empathy that, as responsible adults, they had a duty to set an example for the younger generations. She did not, of course, deny the personal circumstances that could make emotions stronger than reason. But for all the children of the world, adults now…

    Accepting Differences

    Admitting the reality of things is not always easy. Society’s words, the education we receive and, consequently, our prejudices often turn our eyes away from a truth that can sometimes be difficult to accept. The civilisation of the Espers was no exception to this rule, but the renewal of their planet, finally understood as essential,…

    The Elegance of Moderation

    Rebuilding Esperia on a sound foundation necessarily meant changing the system, placing emphasis on the values suited to a world with limited resources, where the remaining ecosystem that allowed the Espers to feed themselves and, quite simply, to live had to be protected. The period leading up to the Chaos War had been marked, among…

    Growing the Seeds Every Day

    Now that the seeds for developing the StarDust had been sown among the Espers all over the world, they needed to be nurtured and allowed to grow. This work had to be done every day and become a new habit for it to bear fruit. Perhaps this was ultimately the most difficult thing for them,…

    The Seeds of a Just World

    When the Seven Shapes first explained the principles of One Daily Tale, a silence could be heard throughout the entire world. It was so simple that it left many of them perplexed, as they had expected far-fetched theories, unreasonable efforts, or even a return to the Stone Age. There was nothing of the sort. It…
