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!

    Mens sana in corpore sano

    While knowledge of a healthy way of life is of course important, Kenko, the Shape of Health, emphasizes practice above all.

    Of Balance and Waves

    When Atma was born, she brought with her a new concept. Balance in everything is like a wave: the cycle of day and night, the turning of the seasons, even life and death. There were natural rhythms all around Esperia, and when one looked more closely, they all seemed like waves. Sound, light, the flow…

    Back to the Future

    On Esperia, the presence of Shala, the Shape of Time, was essential to help the Espers grasp the notions of future, past, and present. Why? Because any past or future action is nothing more than an action that has once been done in the present! And thus, it was difficult for the Espers to fully…
