Changing Mindsets

Regretting the past does not change the world.

But it can help prevent us from repeating the mistakes made before.

It was with this mindset that the Seven Shapes had decided to try to change mindsets for a better world, fairer for everyone and finally in harmony.

This task, which had once seemed completely utopian, now appeared to be within reach.

The revelation of the StarDust before everyone’s eyes, even if only for an instant, at the height of the War of Chaos, was an unprecedented opportunity unlike any ever seen before!

Faya, the Shape of Willpower, had been particularly affected by the realization that she had not acted until then, leaving the door open to those whose only goal was to satisfy their own desires.

If only I had at least tried, instead of telling myself that everything was already lost from the start…

Swallowing back those words, Faya, along with the other Great Elements, developed their StarDust and gradually became what they were now known for: models of virtue for all, regardless of their element.

For changing mindsets is not just about words. We must act, and all of us, with our own StarDust within, have a role to play!

  • Homeostasis

    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

    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

    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

    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…

    A Change of Air

    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…

    A State of Semi-Awakening

    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,…

  • By the Union of All

    By the Union of All

    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…

  • Fair Judgment

    Fair Judgment

    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…
