One Daily Tale

Fair and just

Every Esper of Esperia acknowledged one thing about Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy: there was something special about her.

It was somewhat difficult to explain, but her behavior always smelled of pureness, and this led her to become the living image of fairness and justice as well.

Why? Because being able to feel compassion for others also leads to wanting fairness for everyone.

But Gurumin always said that, just like the other Shapes, she hadn’t received a gift she was born with. Throughout the years and the experiences she had accumulated, slowly and daily, she was able to develop the qualities she was admired for now.

She admitted that, of course, some Espers were more inclined toward empathy, but she understood that working on it made all the difference.

And for an Esperia that aimed for peace and harmony, having fair and just behavior was an example that every Esper could offer to others.

“If you are not able to be fair and just yourself, no one will do it in your stead.”

    The world before the Chaos War appeared, on the surface, to bear the signs of one of the most modern and advanced civilizations. Magic had enabled the development of technologies that would have seemed like sorcery to the ancestors of the Espers. But although the world as a whole had modernized, every new Esper still…

    Since her birth, Atma, the Shape of Balance, had found in Shala, the Shape of Time, an almost motherly figure. The two were very close and often appeared together, which was a boon for the Espers. For both were representations of abstract concepts that were sometimes difficult to remember or understand, so seeing them together…

    By understanding how deeply habits were the anchor of their own lives, the Espers had realized that they could change many things simply through habit. The power of habits seemed almost magical. Step by step, little by little, what had seemed impossible at first suddenly became possible, even easy. And by following the few principles…

    Before the revelation of the StarDust to everyone, the presence within each Esper of a Shadow of their own had sometimes been glimpsed, suspected, or felt, but never had it been so easy to perceive. It was therefore a new experience for many, intriguing, surprising, sometimes even difficult and trying, but always real. For this…

Since then, he had regained what many individuals in modern society had lost: time. Time for himself, to reflect, and to try to understand the world in which he lived, as well as…

    Simba, our little monkey companion from the land of lightning, was beginning to see a little more clearly when it came to awareness. This was mysterious: it now seemed innate to the Espers of the planet, while still needing to be developed. Although he had sensed that several levels of awareness seemed to exist, he…
