One Daily Tale

🌎

A Stable Society

The Esperia known today is a world of peace, but its history before the discovery of the StarDust was chaotic, marked by countless wars between the different Elements.

With One Daily Tale, the Seven Shapes succeeded for the first time in uniting the Five Elements toward the common goal of harmony for every Esper, as well as preserving nature and their shared planet.

Indeed, the end of the Chaos War was the first time the Five Elements realized they had to work together, hand in hand, to create a stable society that did not endanger nature.

They now understood that the source of life and magic in Esperia, called the Aether, existed because of nature and could be nurtured by every living creature through the StarDust that lay within them.

A stable society requires healthy individuals, both physically and mentally.

To achieve this, the Five Elements had to be developed in balance by every single Esper; the Five Great Elements were no exception and were known to lead by example.

    This concept was understood to be crucial for the development of harmony in Esperia. Shala, in particular, was the initiator of this, for she knew that if time was not taken to reflect on the past and to move forward, grudges and resentments would always linger in the Shadow of every Esper— even in the…

    Cha Cha, our beloved platypus, gazed at the cloudless sky, illuminated by countless stars that made him reflect on how small his own existence was compared to the vastness of the universe. He thought about how the discovery of StarDust in Esperia was also the discovery of the Shadow. “If there is no light, we…

    Kenko, the Shape of Health and the Element of Earth, wasn’t the most eloquent of the Shapes. Her lessons were often very practical, and though she didn’t think much about it, she was the type who led by example. Of course, using one’s own body requires more than words. For exercise, theory alone isn’t enough—you…

    When the StarDust was discovered, for the very first time its light revealed that within every living form lingered what the 7 Shapes called the Shadow. Eklea, the Shape of Awareness and the Element of Lightning, soon realized that just as a regular shadow requires a source of light to be seen, the same concept…

    Whenever a calm breeze gently carries an ounce of plenitude, it becomes an opportunity to remind ourselves of Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, and the Element of Wind. Not only the Espers of Esperia, but all living creatures—together with the plants and nature itself—delighted in listening to the wind filled with gentle melodies. The wind…
