Free and open-minded

The Espers of the Element of Lightning were well known for their free and open-minded nature.

Eklea, the Shape of Awareness and Great Element of Lightning, was the most representative among them.

Espers who did not know much about her might believe she possessed a special gift, but those who truly knew her understood that she had slowly developed her personality over the years.

Just like the other Elements needed to develop one’s StarDust—though some may have faster learning curves—time is required to unfold their true potential.
The Element of Lightning was no different, and working daily to become more open-minded and more flexible in various situations was the key to becoming more proficient with Lightning.

“The Five Elements must all be cared for in order for the StarDust to shine brighter. This is why Shala, the Shape of Time, and Atma, the Shape of Balance, are so important. They guide us on our path, helping us grow the seeds that will make our StarDust healthier.”

    Leader by Example

    Kenko, the Shape of Health and the Element of Earth, wasn’t the most eloquent of the Shapes. Her lessons were often very practical, and though she didn’t think much about it, she was the type who led by example. Of course, using one’s own body requires more than words. For exercise, theory alone isn’t enough—you…
