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”…

    Eklea loved challenging the young Espers with small mental games. “Think about how you see the world. Look around you, and try to imagine viewing it through the eyes of your best friend sitting beside you, the tree in Esperia’s garden nearby, or even one of the countless stars shining in our night sky!” “By…

    For children, they are your parents and siblings. Then come friends at school or work. Later, a partner, and your own children. Then the cycle repeats. With the flow of time, we sometimes forget to truly care for our loved ones. Old history may have loosened bonds, or simply living our lives leads us down…

    When working on One Daily Tale, Vati had the important task of creating the backbone of what “Wisdom” would be built upon. Of course, it was now understood that working with the StarDust, and learning about one’s own Shadow, was essential. But unfortunately, the history of wars between the Five Elements does not vanish so…

    Now that it was known and understood that using magic consumed Aether—the source of life for all living creatures on Esperia—it had become natural for the Espers to take care in how they used magic. How? Because their StarDust also produced Aether, they could determine how much magic each of them could use while still…

    Shala was entrusted with a very difficult task: to guide the Espers in living fully in the present while honoring the past and striving for a brighter future. The cycle of day and night on Esperia was much like that of Earth, and the Espers needed rest during the night. For Shala, this natural rhythm…

    When the 7 Shapes first began working on their project, they thought about how to make the best use of the StarDust. Because Shala was there, they understood that setting a daily time limit was essential to consider. They also all agreed that, for habits to be “realistically doable,” they needed to be simple and…

    When the Chaos War ended, a moment of pure stillness was felt by all the Espers who had fought endlessly for years upon years. Even though the StarDust had finally been discovered, an entire world still needed to be rebuilt… Just the thought of such a colossal task brought feelings of hopelessness and inaction. This…

    Kenko, the Shape of Health and Element of Earth, wasn’t the flashiest of all the Shapes, but she was always considered the one you could truly rely on. She was the living example that working on the fundamentals daily bears fruit, and that these basics become the foundation for everything else. Without good health, everything…
