For a Common Goal

On paper, everything seemed clear and obvious.

At least, for those who had taken the time to look into the problem.

And that is no doubt where the root of the lack of cohesion for a common goal lies.

Who truly took the time to look into the problem? To do so, one must first realize that there is one, then make the effort to take interest in it, and finally try to solve it…

Before the Chaos War, Esperia seemed at first glance to be at the height of its art. The use of magic had allowed the five elements to develop in a spectacular way, and had pushed the tensions between them into the background.

But these were far from having disappeared, despite the appearance of peace that was displayed.

The use of magic had made life easier and allowed the population of the Espers to grow in an unthinkable way.

But no magic had the power to change mindsets. And thousands of years of history, of conflicts, of resentment, of myths and beliefs do not change easily.

Shortly before the Chaos War, the effects of magic on the ecosystem and on the Aether were becoming more and more visible, and some now understood that although this magic seemed harmless, it was gradually destroying the global environment of Esperia.

    The Espers of the fire element had built a reputation for always fighting, even in the most unfavorable situations. They had naturally understood that this was how their fire element grew. Even if it sometimes seems counterintuitive, having your back against the wall is sometimes simpler; but it is also when we have a choice

    The question of health is not simple. It must be considered not only from the perspective of an individual, for whom a balanced diet and regular physical exercise are important, but also from the perspective of the group and society, as mental health is often closely connected there.

    Imagine for a moment an ocean of grand beauty, with shimmering waves, golden under the sun and silver beneath the moonlight. These waves come and go, sometimes gently, sometimes more vigorously, yet always in this back-and-forth motion that creates a balance. It was this image that had become present in the minds of the Espers

    Despite their ability to use magic by consuming the Aether of their planet, the Espers had great difficulty perceiving the world on timescales beyond their own. Indeed, their senses did not naturally allow them to grasp such realities; the present moment or a much nearer future would then dominate their thoughts and lead them to
