Becoming One Whole

The discovery of the StarDust by the Espers marked the beginning of a new era of peace, led by the Seven Shapes.

The StarDust was the perfect example of the Five Elements blending to become one whole.

When they decided to write about it, the Seven Shapes thought deeply about this idea.

“From the beginning, the Five Elements could mix together to create the StarDust, yet we didn’t even know about it…” said Vati.

“Yes, we knew about each other’s magical powers, yet we couldn’t grasp this. And now that we know about it, it feels so strange to think about the time when we didn’t know!” exclaimed Eklea.

“Becoming one whole is true for the Five Elements, and it is also true for all living beings. It was only when this idea became natural in the minds of the Espers that peace could finally be reached in Esperia,” said Faya.

“But there is still work to do, and this must be done day after day,” added Shala.

    Just as our nutrition shapes our health, what we feed our minds also has a powerful influence on who we become. Today, with constant access to an almost infinite stream of information through mobile phones, what we choose to consume becomes the food that nourishes—or weakens—our thoughts. As always, knowing this is one thing. Acting

    Eklea loved challenging the young Espers with small mental games. “Think about how you see the world. Look around you, and try to imagine viewing it through the eyes of your best friend sitting beside you, the tree in Esperia’s garden nearby, or even one of the countless stars shining in our night sky!” “By

    For children, they are your parents and siblings. Then come friends at school or work. Later, a partner, and your own children. Then the cycle repeats. With the flow of time, we sometimes forget to truly care for our loved ones. Old history may have loosened bonds, or simply living our lives leads us down

    When working on One Daily Tale, Vati had the important task of creating the backbone of what “Wisdom” would be built upon. Of course, it was now understood that working with the StarDust, and learning about one’s own Shadow, was essential. But unfortunately, the history of wars between the Five Elements does not vanish so

    Now that it was known and understood that using magic consumed Aether—the source of life for all living creatures on Esperia—it had become natural for the Espers to take care in how they used magic. How? Because their StarDust also produced Aether, they could determine how much magic each of them could use while still

    Shala was entrusted with a very difficult task: to guide the Espers in living fully in the present while honoring the past and striving for a brighter future. The cycle of day and night on Esperia was much like that of Earth, and the Espers needed rest during the night. For Shala, this natural rhythm

    When the 7 Shapes first began working on their project, they thought about how to make the best use of the StarDust. Because Shala was there, they understood that setting a daily time limit was essential to consider. They also all agreed that, for habits to be “realistically doable,” they needed to be simple and

    When the Chaos War ended, a moment of pure stillness was felt by all the Espers who had fought endlessly for years upon years. Even though the StarDust had finally been discovered, an entire world still needed to be rebuilt… Just the thought of such a colossal task brought feelings of hopelessness and inaction. This
