Fair and Square

When the rules for Esperia were conceived and chosen, it became clear to the Seven Shapes that, in order to create a world of peace and harmony, those rules needed to be fair to everyone.

Vati and Faya spoke often about responsibility and how every Esper also had the duty to be fair and square themselves.

Because the StarDust was the key, building a society where this understanding became the norm was a priority.

“We need to teach the young ones about being fair and square. Being open instead of afraid of others should feel natural,” said Vati.

“Of course, the different Elements had always been suspicious of one another until now…” said Eklea.

“…But that was only because we didn’t realize we had been in the same boat from the very beginning!”

The Great Library of Esperia was the place where the Espers could freely learn about the principles of One Daily Tale.
