One Daily Tale

🌎

A short period of power

What was unprecedented on Esperia was how detached from power and status the founders of One Daily Tale were.

The Seven Shapes were mainly symbols of what good behavior toward one’s StarDust could lead to: harmony and peace.

They were living examples of what they wrote as guides for everyone, themselves included.

In the past, Esperia was divided into five lands, one for each of the elements, and within each of them, the Espers fought one another in an attempt to reach the top, if only to display some status for a short period of time.

Not only that, but the Elements also battled each other endlessly, trying to become the most dominant, even if only for a few days.

“When you think about it, it sounds so silly… But in order to be able to think about it at all, it requires time and detachment from the current situation,” analyzed Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“To be honest, this is often the case for many young civilizations. I have seen so many, across the different dimensions I am able to perceive. Esperia was able to reach maturity through the development of StarDust before it was too late…” said Shala.

“Too late?” Eklea asked.

“Yes. So many civilizations have destroyed themselves before realizing what was truly inside of them.”

    Even if it may seem obvious, when one has not reflected on a problem, it can sometimes appear invisible, as if it did not exist.
