Aether

The magical world of Esperia was filled with Aether, saturating the atmosphere and creating rainbow reflections that could be admired just by looking at the sky.

While we humans need to breathe air rich in oxygen, the Espers needed to breathe air filled with Aether.

Not only did it connect them to the nature of Esperia, but it was also the source of their magical powers.

One of the first classes taught by Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, was on Aether and the importance of breath.

“In order to use your magical powers at their best, you need to be able to breathe properly!”

In the Awareness section of the Great Library of Esperia, you could see many young Espers practicing the art of breathing.

They would focus on their breath—gently but steadily—and slowly, you could see Aether begin to fuse with their StarDust!

It brought them peace and harmony, always reminding them of the importance of Esperia’s natural essence.
