Crystal Clear

All five elements had traits and behaviors that felt most natural to them. The Espers of the Wind were well known for their listening skills and for their pure character.

Each Element had a place in Esperia where it was easier to grow and develop.

For the Wind, there was a place known for its crystal-clear beauty, said to be able to reflect one’s true heart.

Through the years, many legends were written about this place, called the Valley of Winds.

It was said that the natural landscape of these valleys created a gentle path for the Winds to become soft breezes, carrying quiet melodies that could bring peace to any troubled heart.

It was not uncommon for Espers from all over Esperia to travel to the Valley of Winds, as a pilgrimage to discover more about themselves.

As nature flourished in this land, it was necessary for all Espers to respect the environment, yet its beauty alone was enough to make anyone want to protect it as much as possible.

This feeling of awe was not only for the crystal-clear landscape, but also for all the living beings that inhabited the planet.

“We soon forget what we don’t see regularly, sometimes to the point that we forget it exists, and fail to protect it,” said Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy.

The Valley of Winds and its legends were there to remind all Espers of the beauty of their planet, and of the beauty that exists within each of them.
