One Daily Tale

🌎

An Overview

If there was one thing the Espers of the lightning element were known for, it was their ability to maintain an overall view.

The very nature of the elements still remained a mystery to be explored, yet developing the lightning element allowed anyone to see the world from a broader perspective.

Thus, in relation to time, a long-term vision became easier to embrace. While other elements stopped at nearby events, the Espers of the lightning element could see further and were already thinking about what would come next.

An overall view also makes it possible to see a problem from another angle, as it becomes easier to perceive the relationships between facts or things that may seem, at first glance, unrelated.

The Espers of the water element, representing wisdom, also possessed this ability to see the world in a calm and thoughtful way.

These two elements indeed work well together: water conducts electricity and amplifies its effects.

    Vingel, our little dog friend of the Fire element, gazed deeply into the future that The Seven Shapes were trying to create through One Daily Tale. “This is a task that seems so difficult…” he thought. And for good reason, the understanding of the world, following the end of the War of Chaos, had highlighted

    The discovery of the StarDust had led the Espers to take a closer interest in how to develop it. One thing was clear in any case: it already shone extremely brightly, naturally, during pregnancy, but also throughout childhood. The Seven Shapes had therefore thought it necessary to create a society that promotes the healthy growth

    Simba, our little monkey friend, had roamed across the lands of the different elements. He had noticed one thing: while the elements differ on paper, the behaviors of the Espers were often the same, regardless of the element. He could see carefree young Espers, parents worried by the news of the day, disparities between the

    Cha Cha, our dear little platypus friend, was discussing one of his theories with Guruko. “When you think about a relationship on equal terms, we don’t usually think about comparing individuals from different countries. We often remain focused on a given country, often the one of our birth.” he thought. “Isn’t that normal? Many people

    Can we truly speak of equality of opportunity at birth when the place and conditions in which one is born vary greatly from one region of the planet to another? This was the reflection upon which Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had been focusing. The end of the War of Chaos had revealed that the

    The self-regulation of organisms, which tends to bring them back to a state of balance when there is a fluctuation in levels, is now well understood. Thus, excesses — whether too much or too little — are detected, and systems are set in motion to return to a balanced value beneficial to the continuation of

    What image comes to mind when you think of the expression “once in a lifetime”? A beautiful encounter, a new beginning, perhaps an unexpected event. On Esperia, the notion of time was not so different from that on Earth. But the presence of Shala, the Shape of Time, had gradually changed the Espers’ approach to

    On paper, everything seemed clear and obvious. At least, for those who had taken the time to look into the problem. And that is no doubt where the root of the lack of cohesion for a common goal lies. Who truly took the time to look into the problem? To do so, one must first
