Exempt from All Prejudice

“Try for a moment to imagine a world where prejudice exists for no one.”

“In this world, differences of origin, base element, or sex do not influence our personal feelings in any way.”

“A mutual respect, regardless of the individual, is then created naturally. Like the youngest ones who, not yet marked by society’s prejudices, play, communicate, and gather together, quite simply.”

The young Espers present in the room closed their eyes and saw, in their minds, images of a world that was easily prosperous and harmonious.

“The discovery of the StarDust, which exists within each of us, was a revelation for Esperia.”

A young Esper, intrigued, simply asked: “Our StarDust?”

“Yes, we now know that developing our five elements in a balanced way makes a small light shine within each of us, and we call it the StarDust. Until now, we did not know that, at the origin, each element was only a part of a whole.”

“Developing our StarDust allows us to see the world through a new perspective that goes beyond prejudice.”

    A long time ago, when Shala first witnessed Chaos reigning— with the Five Elements and the Espers fighting tirelessly for thousands of years — she would never have dreamt that it would one day become the land of peace and harmony: Esperia. In another universe, on Earth, Cha Cha was reading The Tales of the

    When the StarDust first appeared before the Five Elements, and the Espers who had battled for an endless time, it brought an eerie sensation of plenitude and stillness. Gazing at this mysterious, warm, and bright light—irised with beautiful rainbow colours that flowed gently, like an evident dance—for the first time, the Five Elements could see

    Climate change caused by humans is a fact. In just a few hundred years, the use—and abuse—of fossil fuels to develop “human civilization” has shaped a world whose dire consequences we can only begin to fathom. If you live in a wealthy and politically stable country—one that has almost certainly reached this state through environmental

    Simba, our lovely little monkey-like creature, heard something extremely valuable. Not only does the body have limits, but so does the mind! If you exercise too much, it can lead to injuries. The same is true for mental health. The mind is like a reservoir that can fill with all kinds of emotions. Sometimes it

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, often reminded her students that the Initial Condition of a situation has a significant impact on its outcome. Does that seem obvious? Perhaps—if you’ve thought about it. Does it mean we are bound by where we start? Of course not. But realizing that the starting point is not the same

You know how a mirror works, right? You look into it, and it reflects your

     …it is folly to be wise. Cha Cha reflected on this sentence. It was written in the 18th century by an English poet. At that time, all energy sources were renewable, with little risk of real damage to the environment, as everything was powered by natural elements or living beings. Sadly, history also shows that

    It took quite a long time before the Shape of Balance, Atma, and the meaning behind the word “Balance” finally became one of the accepted and evident keys to harmony in Esperia. In principle, it’s simple! In a world with limited resources, there is a clear need for restraint among the living beings who share,
