One Daily Tale

Equally and Fairly

Faced with the immense task that the reconstruction of Esperia represented, the need to rethink the world as a whole had finally reached the center of discussions.

“We now finally understand that we share one single planet,” began Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“We also understand that the five elements, as different as they may seem, are each a part of a whole. By combining them, we can develop the StarDust that lies dormant within each of us,” she continued.

“Until now, we did not realize that the use of magic was destroying, each time, a small part of the life source of our planet, which we now call Aether…,” noted Kenko, the Shape of Health.

“We must therefore rethink how we organize ourselves by limiting its use… This will not be simple, because the use of magic has made our daily lives easier, to the point where we have become dependent on it.
Becoming aware of this dependence is already a great step forward,” declared Eklea, the Shape of Awareness.

“Everyone will have a role to play, regardless of their base element, their qualities, or their flaws. There will therefore be responsibilities to take on, for all…,” added Faya, the Shape of Will.

“And if, until now, the world may have seemed unequal and unfair, this is also the right moment to adjust the future world in which peace and harmony will now be the foundations of Esperia,” concluded Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy.

    At the Great Library of Esperia, there was a special space dedicated to children. The Seven Shapes soon came to understand the importance of children for a society that sought peace.

    The young Espers were surprised by this lesson from Vati, the Shape of Wisdom. They believed Vati knew everything—that no question was ever left unanswered—since she was respected as the wisest of all in Esperia. Yet, it was Vati who said “I don’t know” the most. Ironic, isn’t it? But having the courage to accept

    Losing a loved one may be the most tragic event you ever experience. Naturally, the closer the person, the more devastating the loss. It can feel as though the world has ended, and your thoughts will revolve entirely around the fact that the one you love is gone. Because of how the brain works, time

    If every individual on this Earth is unique, then to us, our mother is even more unique. A natural bond is formed during pregnancy and through breastfeeding, a period when, as newborns, we are entirely dependent on our parents’ care and love. How we feel about our parents will naturally change with time and circumstances.

    Faya, the Shape of Willpower and the Element of Fire, liked to put into practice the very principles she taught at the Great Library of Esperia. Even before learning about the StarDust—and that it required the harmonious combination of all Elements to eventually take shape through a radiant Aether Flow—Faya had always understood that practice

    This may sound obvious, but as you eat healthier, you become healthier. Yet, when we look at what is consumed in the wealthiest countries on our planet, it simply doesn’t make sense. Companies earning millions of dollars sell sugar-filled foods and drinks—because they sell. Why? Because adding sugar makes the product addictive, and your brain
