An Artificial Environment

After the Chaos War, the entire planet Esperia had to be reconsidered from a new perspective.

During the years of war, and through the relentless use of magic to sustain it, irreversible damage had been done to the environment.

One thing was certain: the conditions of life were going to change drastically, and everyone, without exception, would have to endure its effects.

But it was still difficult for many Espers to truly perceive what they had brought upon the environment, because the inertia of a planetary system that surpassed them was immense, and the most severe impacts would only reveal themselves decades later…

If, until then, a balance had existed between nature and the Espers who inhabited it, the use of magic had destroyed this balance and had gradually created an environment that was now artificial.

The time to admire nature as it truly was was over, even though it had existed long before these beings who had allowed themselves to completely repaint the landscape of the planet.

They now had to live with an artificial nature.

Or rather, survive, for those who had the misfortune of being born in areas already deeply affected by climate change…

The irony of the story is that those responsible for this were also applauded and praised.

    The Creation of Earth

    Shala was able to witness the creation of Earth too, far, far away from the magical land of Esperia. She was curious and full of joy as she watched life begin to take shape—how, over millions of years, nature slowly unfolded into a world where living beings could grow, flourish, and live in harmony. But…

  • The StarDust

    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. The StarDust allowed the Espers to trust one another, placing fear under the guidance of their awareness and wisdom, and enabling them to…

    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…

    Guruko and Cha Cha

She lived with her Grandma Luna, who often reminded her: “Listening is a gift you should use as often as you can.” Her closest companion was a platypus who fancied himself a philosophical writer. Guruko had named him Cha Cha. Taking…

    Young Vati

    Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, wasn’t born knowing everything.She gathered her wisdom slowly, over time—bit by bit—always checking to see if what she knew was still true. At first, learning didn’t excite her. To be honest, she thought it was dull. She would’ve much rather chatted with Gurumin or watched Kenko perform his dazzling flips…
