Education First

The world is filled with countless mysteries yet to be discovered, and with so many things that have been learned through the years since the beginning of civilizations.

Not only for adults, but even more so for newly born Espers, it can feel overwhelming.

That’s why Vati and the other Shapes believed that education needed to hold a very special place in order to create a land of harmony.

Because with education, communication between individuals becomes possible.

It also leads to understanding more about the world we live in and, furthermore—and perhaps more importantly—to understanding oneself.

Ancient tales describe how placing education as a priority led to remarkable Espers who contributed to the prosperity of Esperia.

They came from diverse Elements, yet they shared one common trait: they had all received particular care in their education.

“If we want to build a world where all the Elements can live in peace and harmony, education must come first,” thought Vati.
