Four Seas Family

Once again, Guruko and Simba, her platypus friend, were looking through a mysterious magical device that allowed them to glimpse other dimensions.

They had been watching, for a while, the dimension where we human beings live; they were intrigued by how we might eventually develop.

One thing that resonated a little with them was how divided human civilization is.

“Before the Chaos War, it was the same in Esperia,” said Guruko thoughtfully.

“Indeed. Now that peace is the norm in Esperia, it’s hard to believe such a time ever existed, when the Five Elements feared and fought each other endlessly…” replied Simba.

“It seems it’s still a bit too soon for them…”

“If they knew about the Seven Shapes, maybe they would be able to realize that they form a single family sharing the same planet. That understanding could become evidence strong enough to unite them and protect their world together.”

“Yes, the history of human civilization is still young. It’s too recent for them to be able to integrate all of this at once,” concluded Simba.
