One Daily Tale

Finding Yourself Through Love

Does this title sound cliché? I guess so. But is it true? Absolutely. Of course, the word love carries as many meanings as there are human beings on our shared planet.

For most of us, the first love we experience is that of our mother, who carries us for months and cares for us by caring for herself—because a healthy newborn requires a healthy mother. Motherhood is finding yourself through the love for one’s child.

The love we share with siblings and friends is yet another kind of love—one that reveals different parts of ourselves, often through imitation.

Then comes the love for a partner, which compels us to see the world through another pair of eyes.

Finding yourself is a daunting, almost dantesque task. But with love, it becomes possible to finally perceive what lies within you—the love for yourself.

    Cha Cha was also deeply thinking about One Daily Tale, and about the StarDust. The Espers of Esperia had all developed their own StarDust—a bright, shiny, warm veil that reflected rainbow colors. The StarDust allowed the Espers to trust one another, placing fear under the guidance of their awareness and wisdom, and enabling them to

    One Daily Tale was a special book. It was written with magic, and the 7 Shapes themselves spent their time reflecting on how to write and present the important—yet simple—points of the concept, which was linked to harmony with nature and peace for the living creatures of Esperia. This was when Faya stood up a

    In a world without the 7 Shapes, humankind had to develop without knowledge, without awareness. This marked the beginning of a world based on the survival of the fittest, where physical strength became the natural way to survive—without knowing how to communicate, unable to trust one another, and instinctively fearing others. Without an understanding of

    When the Eclipse took place and Eklea vanished, the Shadows of every Esper began whispering thoughts that made them feel certain—they believed they were right, doing what was right, all while thinking they were fully aware.But in truth, the Shadows had gently slipped blinders over their eyes, making them unable to see the real truth.

    Guruko was raised on a small island, hidden from the rest of the world. She lived with her Grandma Luna, who often reminded her: “Listening is a gift you should use as often as you can.” Her closest companion was a platypus who fancied himself a philosophical writer. Guruko had named him Cha Cha. Taking

    Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, wasn’t born knowing everything.She gathered her wisdom slowly, over time—bit by bit—always checking to see if what she knew was still true. At first, learning didn’t excite her. To be honest, she thought it was dull. She would’ve much rather chatted with Gurumin or watched Kenko perform his dazzling flips

    Atma had a special gift: she could sense the rhythm of the Shapes within each being. Like a quiet breeze tuning the strings of a harp, she helped adjust their strength, keeping the StarDust glowing gently and in harmony. The flow of the Shapes wasn’t a straight line, like the horizon at sea, but a

    Shala, who had always been alone since the beginning of Time and the Universe, was overjoyed when Esperia slowly took shape. Along with it came the elemental Shapes—Gurumin of Wind, Vati of Water, Faya of Fire, Kenko of Earth, and Eklea of Lightning. If people on Earth could see Esperia, they would be amazed to
