Again and Again

Even though Esperia had finally become a haven of peace, some Espers still remained reluctant to make efforts they had never made before.
In particular, for those whose inner Shadow was predominant, the principles of One Daily Tale sounded like reproaches, again and again.

“Why do I need to follow these rules now, when before I was free to do nothing?” complained an Esper from a powerful lineage.

“But it is by following them every day that we can develop our StarDust… You yourself said that when it was revealed to everyone, it was the first time you had ever felt that,” his son replied.

His father remained speechless for a few moments, slightly moved by that magical instant when all the Espers had been overwhelmed by the light hidden within them.

“Yes, you are right, but it is not easy to form new habits. Especially at my age.”

“But that is why we must do it daily. Again and again. That is what we are taught. Our StarDust needs time to grow,” his son answered back.

    The StarDust

    Cha Cha was also deeply thinking about One Daily Tale, and about the StarDust. The Espers of Esperia had all developed their own StarDust—a bright, shiny, warm veil that reflected rainbow colors.

    Challenge Accepted

    One Daily Tale was a special book. It was written with magic, and the 7 Shapes themselves spent their time reflecting on how to write and present the important—yet simple—points of the concept, which was linked to harmony with nature and peace for the living creatures of Esperia. This was when Faya stood up a

    A World Without the 7 Shapes

    In a world without the 7 Shapes, humankind had to develop without knowledge, without awareness. This marked the beginning of a world based on the survival of the fittest, where physical strength became the natural way to survive—without knowing how to communicate, unable to trust one another, and instinctively fearing others. Without an understanding of

    When the Eclipse took place and Eklea vanished, the Shadows of every Esper began whispering thoughts that made them feel certain—they believed they were right, doing what was right, all while thinking they were fully aware.But in truth, the Shadows had gently slipped blinders over their eyes, making them unable to see the real truth.

    Atma had a special gift: she could sense the rhythm of the Shapes within each being.
