One Daily Tale

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.

    The primary instincts of the Esper species pushed them to act naturally for their individual survival before anything else.

    The world before the Chaos War displayed many symptoms of a sick society, rotten to the core with heightened individual desires. A world where appearances and showing off were the values held up for admiration. Only visible results seemed to matter, regardless of effort or even truth. Many individuals cheated and lied in order to…

    If the answer to this question can only be a matter of supposition, one thing is certain: it is the choices made today that will shape the future for generations to come. The Seven Shapes understood well that the Espers, and their Shadow even more so, were creatures naturally inclined to think of themselves first.…
