For Eternity?

The question of mortality had been debated for thousands of years on Esperia.
Like many civilizations, the fear of the unknown had led different beings to create reasons for their existence and to find interpretations for the signs given by nature.

“The question of time and existence is truly complicated,” worried Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.
“Atma, wouldn’t you have some advice to give to the Espers who feel a little lost?”

Atma, the Shape of Time, smiled and answered in a soft and peaceful voice.

“Taking the time to listen to oneself is already a great step toward a better understanding of what is happening inside.”

“It is the cycle of life. Nothing is eternal. The stars we can admire after nightfall will also shine brighter before fading away and creating new ones.”

“Feeling afraid is completely normal and understandable. But instead of rejecting that fear, why not try to befriend it? It allows us to appreciate even more each day spent with the beings who are dear to us.”

    We quickly forget what we don’t see before our eyes. That may be why the history of wars and violence seems to repeat itself again and again. No one can truly understand what happens during wars, during genocides, unless they witness it themselves. Most of those making decisions live in elite spheres, disconnected from the

    We are all born with different cards in our hands and raised under various conditions. For most of us, we have received a tremendous number of gifts!

The twist is that throughout history, this need for obstacles has sometimes taken the form of creating enemies. In many languages, this took the name of “barbarians.” In ancient times,

    Guided by the 7 Shapes, the Espers realized that their StarDust was the result of the teachings shared by all of them. One of the important things they also understood was that, no matter what they tried to do, the will to do it was extremely important. The funny thing is, in order to learn,
