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…

    Before our Eyes

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness and Element of Lightning, always reminded her students that understanding simple facts was the beginning of mastering more complicated concepts. “We can only see what is before our eyes.” The young Espers laughed at such an obvious statement. Eklea smiled and added: “When we don’t see things or people for

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, understood more than anyone else the power of sound and music to soothe minds.

    To Wipe the Slate Clean

    This concept was understood to be crucial for the development of harmony in Esperia. Shala, in particular, was the initiator of this, for she knew that if time was not taken to reflect on the past and to move forward, grudges and resentments would always linger in the Shadow of every Esper— even in the
