One Daily Tale

🌎

Consistency of words and actions

After they created One Daily Tale, the Seven Shapes knew this was only the first step toward a peaceful Esperia.

“From now on, the real challenge begins,” thought Vati, who understood better than anyone that while truth could be written with words, actions and behaviors did not always follow naturally.

This was when Faya stepped forward and encouraged her friends.

“Now that One Daily Tale exists, we must act accordingly and become living examples—proof that these principles, if followed, can lead to a world of harmony for every Esper, no matter their Element!”

“And the StarDust all living creatures possess is the key to that, right?” added Eklea.

“Our behaviors should reflect the words we wrote, just as those words guide us. This is true for a healthy life…” said Kenko.

“…But also for relationships, and for developing empathy and compassion,” confirmed Gurumin.

Shala and Atma smiled as they watched the Five Elements combine their strengths once again, working for a better world.

    Is this reality truly understood? When we look at how the governments of the richest countries behave, it doesn’t seem so. A consensus on climate change should be obvious. “Because others don’t act, why should we? We’ll just lose the economic war.” Well, since we — unfortunately? — share the same boat, and it’s the

    The StarDust, like all things, is governed by rules. With Vati’s guidance, the Seven Shapes soon came to understand this. And one of these rules concerned Willpower, and how its use was like drawing from a shared pool. Whenever an Esper used their will to take on tasks that were frustrating or required deep focus,

    This was one of the mottos of Kenko, the Shape of Health. “A bit of exercise every day is far more effective in the long run than one full day of training, followed by months of nothing.” Now that the StarDust is known by all the Espers, it makes complete sense. Shala always reminds the

    Eklea and Vati soon became very good friends. Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, always loved asking questions, which came to her mind as swiftly as her Element of Lightning. In Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, she found a companion who would always listen and think along with her. Vati was often surprised by the questions

    The Seven Shapes understood that for the Espers to act in unison, there needed to be shared values and goals — a common foundation for a new beginning. Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, became a symbol of what must be protected, and of why working together was the only way forward. Her innocence was admired

    Just as being able to say “I don’t know” is a sign of wisdom, wanting to know—rather than passively accepting things as truth—is yet another mark of it. “It is so easy to accept facts as they are, without trying to understand whether they are true or the reasons behind them,” taught Vati, the Shape

    Reflections on how to build a world with harmony at its center led the Seven Shapes to place balance at the heart of the matter. Atma, the Shape of Balance—born from the fusion of all Five Elements and the discovery of the StarDust—was understood to be the key to solving this challenge. They contemplated the

    Shala and Vati discussed extensively the development of StarDust throughout the lifetime of an Esper. One of their conclusions was that even before the birth of a new Esper, the time spent in the mother’s womb had already begun to shape what its future StarDust would eventually become. Broadly speaking, childhood is the “decisive time.”
