Before our Eyes

Eklea, the Shape of Awareness and Element of Lightning, always reminded her students that understanding simple facts was the beginning of mastering more complicated concepts.

“We can only see what is before our eyes.”

The young Espers laughed at such an obvious statement.

Eklea smiled and added: “When we don’t see things or people for a long time, we tend to think about them less—sometimes to the point of forgetting them.”
“What is within our reach is what lies before our own eyes.”

The young Espers began to grasp the depth of her words, becoming more captivated and interested in the lesson.

“With the other Shapes, we have created One Daily Tale to remind us that habits are the foundation of a bright StarDust.”

“Habits are within your reach, shaping the background of what is before your eyes.”

“What you choose to watch and see is your own responsibility.”

Taking action in response to these problems nevertheless allows one to ease their own…

    Under the reign of Taseki, known as the Conquering Emperor, the Espers of Fire were subjected to the most vehement propaganda against the other elements. The others were portrayed as potential threats and demonized in order to strip away every trace of empathy toward them. Under the pretext that the other elements would be able…

Zeiniku was probably the typical example of a sedentary person, seeing himself above all as free…

    The Age of Magic had given life to new machines, which were also capable of creating, writing, or speaking. Just like the Espers, they were capable of inventing stories and creating virtual worlds. For the Espers, distinguishing fiction from reality was becoming increasingly difficult in a world where the virtual and the real were blending…

But not…

    Lune Lune, our little cat friend of the Water element, had been taken in by Guruo. Guruo, who was trying to do his very best, appeared to some of the others as if he were deliberately trying to be the teachers’ favorite. There was, of course, a great deal of jealousy, which also revealed a…

    The widespread use of magic had changed the landscape and the way of life of the Espers across the world. Magic had also paved the way for the creation of new technologies that allowed them to remain active even at night and operate machines far more powerful than their own muscles. Thus, the Espers were…
