One Daily Tale

🌎

A Shared Story

The Aftermath of the Chaos War had left Esperia scarred across its entire surface. This conflict, on a scale never seen before, had spared no corner of the planet…

How could they rebuild so that such a disaster for the entire planet’s ecosystem would finally and truly become a thing of the past?

At the heart of this catastrophe, a glimmer of hope had nevertheless appeared.

The StarDust.

It had revealed itself at the climax of the Chaos War, when the most powerful magical attacks of the Five elements combined, creating a light of a purity never witnessed before.

This event had also given birth to Atma, the Shape of balance.

For the first time in the civilization of the Espers, which had developed in parallel across the planet according to the five elements, a shared story could finally be written.

It was an obvious truth that, however, appeared to no one, because the Shadow of each individual still controlled each of their thoughts.

The StarDust now allowed them to perceive this Shadow.

It was in this context that those we know as the Seven Shapes wrote the shared story that would finally unite the Espers of the planet Esperia.

This story is called “One Daily Tale”…

    The discovery of the StarDust had revealed the existence of a Shadow within every Esper. Long ago, some philosophers already spoke of the importance of knowing oneself, and Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, believed that what they were truly referring to was this Shadow. “This Shadow is a part of us. It is neither good…

    “The circle of life,” Gurumin said with a smile, knowing those words would awaken childhood memories in some hearts. “A new generation arrives, and the older one passes on its experience, its knowledge, and its skills.” “Then it becomes their turn to teach, and the cycle continues.” Yet this obvious truth had gradually faded away,…

    Lune Lune, our cat companion of the water element, now accompanied Guruo to his lessons. At first, he had been reluctant to go, but the teachings given in the Great Library of Esperia truly spoke to him. There were many things to learn, of course. But one thing had changed since the Seven Shapes had…

    Just like Shala, the Shape of Time, the end of the War of Chaos had revealed to the Espers the existence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, born at the moment when the most powerful magics of the Five Great Elements merged and illuminated the entire planet with a new light, which came to be…

    If Shala, the Shape of Time, had now become one of the Seven Shapes, who had gathered to build a civilization living in harmony with nature and in peace on Esperia, very little was known about her past or her origins. Her mysterious identity made her unique, almost divine, and recalled the ancient beliefs of…

    Cha Cha, our little platypus companion, gazed once again into the magic mirror at this unknown civilization, which nevertheless had many things in common with that of the Espers. This civilization called itself “magnificent.” But as Cha Cha became more interested in their planet, their history, and their evolution, “magnificent” was not really the word…

    Faya, the Shape of Willpower, was well known for never mincing her words and often saying aloud what everyone else was only thinking. Like the other Shapes, she had begun applying the principles of One Daily Tale to develop her own StarDust. She therefore had to develop her Water element, connected to Wisdom, and, to…

    The use of magic had greatly improved access to healthcare and had, as a result, significantly extended the life expectancy of the Espers in a remarkably short time. The downside was that the Espers did not seem to have considered the consequences such an achievement would bring. The massive increase in population was indeed creating…
