Emergence of Talents

Guiding the young Espers to develop their talents and not leaving them to fend for themselves had become a priority on Esperia.

For a better future, society as a whole must become better.

This had become the leitmotif of Esperia’s renewal since the end of the War of Chaos.

The Seven Shapes had realized how deeply many Espers had become disillusioned with the society in which they lived.

Young Espers, in particular, often had great difficulty finding their bearings in a world where the things that should now be obvious were still being set aside, in favor of others that were merely the result of dogmas built upon a profound lack of knowledge.

“History up to now must serve all of us. We must draw lessons from the past in order to build the future on healthy foundations for everyone.” said Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“This will challenge the customs of many, but in truth it is simply their responsibility, long set aside, taking its rightful place again.” interjected Faya, the Shape of Will.

    A Simple Speck Among the Stars

    The Espers throughout the world had the unfortunate tendency to think of themselves as the center of the world.

But sometimes, or even…

    Reflecting on a Global Education

    Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands. Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves. Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those…

    What Do We Really Need?

    It was a question that often came up in the debates at the Great Library of Esperia, which, since the end of the Chaos War, had served Espers from all over the world as a place to exchange ideas, discuss, and try to find compromises on difficult issues. The Chaos War had indeed brought to…

    Investing Time Every Day

    The civilization of the Espers before the Chaos War had gradually become accustomed to having everything done almost instantly. Waiting was becoming unbearable for many of them, and a long-term perspective seemed like nothing more than a vague memory of the past. Now that the StarDust was better understood, however, it seemed obvious that investing…

    Perceiving Reality

    The development of the civilization of the Espers, greatly accelerated by the use of magic for decades, had gradually distanced them from reality. The reality of a physical world with limited resources, shared by everyone. Some indeed believed that by blaming the other elemental regions, or by choosing not to get their own hands dirty…

    Choosing Is Difficult

    Faya, the Shape of Willpower and a great element of Fire, had chosen this title to lead a debate about taking responsibility and the choices each Esper had to make regarding it.

    In All Simplicity

    It is very easy and natural to believe that we are the center of the Earth. And in a society increasingly concerned with individual freedoms, this way of thinking can only spread. Yet it is just as easy to take even a few minutes to reflect on the situation as a whole. By zooming out,…

  • Strength in Unity

    Strength in Unity

    The Seven Shapes had become the symbol that there is strength in unity. Each elemental land was represented, and while each element had its strengths and weaknesses, the Espers had understood that the union of the elements could create a force far greater than all of them separately. On an individual level, this developed the…
