One Daily Tale

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.”

    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…

    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…

    Joriko, our very dear companion the red panda, had gradually become interested in the effects of consuming Aether, the life source of the planet. Learning more about its consequences, as well as the efforts that would be required, made anyone who understood the problem very anxious about the future… Since he had freed himself from…

    In a small village in the Land of Lightning lived a young Esper named Roboka. In a completely natural way, she imitated and repeated every action and gesture, not only of the other villagers, but also of the animals of the forest! Watching her try her very best to reproduce the sounds of fantastical creatures,…

    The task of rebuilding Esperia was daunting. If the consequences still seemed imperceptible, almost nonexistent, the damage had indeed been done. Aether, the life source of the planet, had been greatly reduced, and the natural process of its regeneration was slow—far slower than its consumption through the use of Esper magic. From now on, one…

    To rebuild Esperia on healthy foundations for all, it had become clear that it was necessary to reach a fair judgment of what is good and what is bad. “Easier said than done…” thought the Espers who had already reflected on this, yet also saw this idea as utopian and unrealistic. Vati, the Shape of…
