A Good Sleep for a Good Mood

Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy and Compassion, loved to sleep. Yet sometimes, when bedtime arrived, she wanted to stay awake just a little longer to enjoy the day. But studies on sleep by Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, showed that getting proper rest each day is one of the key ingredients for maintaining a good mood.

And since Gurumin also loved being in a good mood, creating a comfortable sleep environment became a priority.

In winter, she enjoyed sleeping in cozy, fluffy sheets that warmed her on colder nights and let her drift into dreams of the young Espers she would teach the next day, and the many friends she hoped to meet.

And when morning arrived with bright sunlight and birds singing, she awoke and joined in their song, her gentle whistle carrying happiness to all who wished to hear it.

    When the Seven Shapes first explained the principles of One Daily Tale, a silence could be heard throughout the entire world.

    In their desire to create a fairer society for everyone, and one finally in harmony with the nature on which they depended, the Seven Shapes had, without really intending to, laid the first stones of a new civilization.

    Each Esper saw the world in a different way. But the reality of the physical world in which they all lived was, indeed, shared by all. In this context, some Espers were more aware of their vision of the world and of how closely it reflected reality. Children, who were born without any knowledge, could…

And with good reason, each one was truly the main character of their own story, so how could they be blamed for putting their choices or their own well-being and comfort first? But sometimes, or even…

    Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands. Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves. Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those…

    It was a question that often came up in the debates at the Great Library of Esperia, which, since the end of the Chaos War, had served Espers from all over the world as a place to exchange ideas, discuss, and try to find compromises on difficult issues. The Chaos War had indeed brought to…
