A Unified Public Opinion

Esperia was in an extremely delicate situation.

The planet itself would continue to exist for millions and millions of years to come.

But for the living beings who inhabited it, the situation was far more complicated.

Years of ecosystem destruction and the damage inflicted upon the environment of their planet had given rise to chaos, which took its most tragically famous form in a global conflict now known as the Chaos War.

Esperia had been the stage of wars for centuries. Within the same country, despite belonging to the same element. Between the different elements.
The Espers did not seem capable of remaining at peace.

But if there was one thing that could finally change the situation, it was for everyone, regardless of their element, to share a unified public opinion.

Until then, no true rule or general guideline for all had ever been established.
And for good reason, the conflicts had hardly ceased, and none of the elements had yet truly realized that they were all part of the same whole.

The creation of a unified charter for all therefore seemed necessary and essential for a harmonious future for everyone.

Laws existed on the scale of a country belonging to one element. New laws now had to emerge on the scale of the planet, independently of the elements.

    Accepting differences

    Now that Esperia was finally at peace, it became natural for the five different Elements to work together and share their knowledge and skills.

    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,…
