One Daily Tale

🌎

Family Time

Though Esperia was now a united society where the different Elemental Espers tried their best to live in harmony, the Seven Shapes knew that at the core of a peaceful world were the daily lives of each Esper, especially their family.

Because time is limited each day, and because Espers had a natural tendency to see only what was directly in front of them, Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, soon understood that a family with healthy relationships among its members was extremely important.

The fundamental need for eating was the perfect moment to strengthen their bonds. Sharing a meal while talking and genuinely listening to what others had to say became a conscious choice for the Espers.

It took time for some of them to adapt to this new way of living, but these kinds of beneficial habits would eventually bear the fruits of compassion in the long run.

Care for your family, care for the whole world.

    In order to maintain their StarDust, it was essential that any Esper kept their inner fire under control. Every Esper was born with their own fire burning inside them, and its intensity and color could take many forms! Faya always reminded the young Espers that working on one’s inner fire was a task only they…

    The reality is that screens have taken over the world—smartphones, tablets, computers—all within just a few decades. We also now understand that, physiologically speaking, it is recommended for young children to avoid screens as much as possible and instead use paper books. It is better for their brain development. And when we consider that our…

    There was a place in the heart of the Land of the Shape of Wisdom, Esperia, where every young Esper had to visit when their StarDust began to take shape. It was called the Fountain of Wisdom. Deep beneath the ground of Esperia flowed a natural fountain, whose waters spread into rivers that bathed all…
