For a Noble Cause

The Seven Shapes had understood one thing: no Esper was born with knowledge of the world, its history, or its tragedies.

For the young, sometimes left to themselves, they had understood that it was more than necessary to establish a charter capable of guiding them.

Thus, Faya, the Shape of Will, thought that having a shared global purpose among the Five elements of Esperia was obvious. If years of wars and conflicts had not been prevented until now, it was not only because of the naturally selfish nature of the Espers, but also because of a lack of unity on a planetary scale!

It was only very recently, as their civilization developed, that the Espers had discovered the other elements inhabiting their planet.

Thanks to the use of their magic, they were now able to communicate with one another, but a noble common cause needed to come into being.

That is why the Seven Shapes wrote a charter shared by the Five elements.
One of the articles of this charter described the importance of developing one’s StarDust every day.

And you are reading one of these daily tales right now.

This article, with time, took the form of One Daily Tale…

  • Life is Ephemeral

    Life is Ephemeral

    The recognition of this principle had allowed Esperia to be rebuilt on fairer foundations for all. Remembering daily the presence of Shala, the Shape of Time, was a way for the Espers to remind themselves that life was ephemeral, allowing them to appreciate not only their own existence more intensely, but also the lives of…

  • Exempt from All Prejudice

    Exempt from All Prejudice

    “Try for a moment to imagine a world where prejudice exists for no one.” “In this world, differences of origin, base element, or sex do not influence our personal feelings in any way.” “A mutual respect, regardless of the individual, is then created naturally. Like the youngest ones who, not yet marked by society’s prejudices,…

  • Persevering After Failures

    Persevering After Failures

    The lesson of the day was dear to Faya, the Shape of Will, and was titled “Persevering After Failures.” Even though she had become the Great Element of Fire, and was admired for her fighting spirit and the strength of her inner fire, she often reminded the young Espers that behind every success there are…

  • In Good Health

    In Good Health

    If the concept of the five elements often seemed rather abstract at first for young Espers, the element of Earth was certainly the easiest for them to understand first. Indeed, an Esper in good health is immediately noticeable among others: a more athletic body, neither too thin, showing a lack of physical exercise, nor too…

  • Diversity of Opinions

    Diversity of Opinions

    The Great Library of Esperia had become a life-sized example of what a civilization built on values shared by all could become, regardless of their main element or their origin. It would have been unimaginable just a few years earlier to see the Espers of the five different elements unite for a single common cause:…

  • Radiant and Innocent

    Radiant and Innocent

    The youngest Espers all shared the radiant and innocent purity that belongs to children. This allowed them to naturally use the Wind element, regardless of their base element. Now that the link between magic and the StarDust had been established, the Espers finally understood that every magic was in reality the emanation of their own…

  • Long-Term Vision

    Long-Term Vision

    The end of the Chaos War was the perfect opportunity to finally rebuild Esperia on solid foundations that had until now been ignored. Vati, the Form of Wisdom, was worried about how things would unfold, for it required envisioning the world in the long term. “Many Espers will resist making the necessary changes…” she thought.Indeed,…

  • Two Sides of the Same Coin

    Two Sides of the Same Coin

    The discussion of the day was about the importance of maintaining a balance between rights and duties. Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, reminded them:“For a long time, we did not know that using magic consumed a little of the Aether each time, the precious life source of our planet.” “Then it becomes a duty to…
