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.

    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.

    Simba, our little monkey friend, had roamed across the lands of the different elements.

    On Equal Terms

    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…

    Without Discrimination

    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…

    Homeostasis

    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…

    Once in a Lifetime

    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…

    For a Common Goal

    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…

    That Is None of Our Concern

    Since the rise of magic on Esperia, the means of communication had greatly changed. Until then, it had been difficult to obtain information from the other side of the planet in a short time; now, it had become extremely easy to receive news within seconds. Nevertheless, in both cases, the truthfulness of statements and information…
