One Daily Tale

Grandma Luna

Grandma Luna had a mysterious aura around her. Her warm smile and gentle eyes always comforted Guruko whenever she felt a bit sad or lonely.

Yet, Grandma Luna often stared at the sky with a hint of melancholy in her gaze. But when Guruko entered the room, a bright smile would instantly return to her delicate face.

Some would call it the wisdom of age, but Grandma Luna wasn’t thinking about that at all, actually. She simply enjoyed spending time with Guruko, who was like a living, shining sun, lighting up the small living room of the house.

Made of wood and resembling a small chalet, the house now sheltered Guruko in her own room on the second floor, where she had created a cozy spot for Cha Cha to rest.

Grandma Luna liked to spend her time reading books and listening to classical music.

She had taught Guruko about One Daily Tale, and how it could change the world.

And she knew it was nearly time to tell her more about her story…

    For Esperia, this was the discovery of the StarDust, revealed to all at the end of the Chaos War, which had been the trigger for the Espers to finally act in concert. Indeed, for years, despite technological progress and even learning to use magic, which had made many tedious tasks child’s play, the inertia of

    The Espers were not the only creatures on their planet endowed with consciousness; animals or even plants had evolved to develop it as well. Vingel was a creature that resembled a small dog.

Thus, to rebuild Esperia on healthier foundations, it was also necessary to rethink the foundations of a

Seeing the world from a different perspective, he often wondered why a broader vision had still not yet

    Rebuilding Esperia on foundations that were fair for everyone, while also keeping harmony with nature in mind, was an extremely complicated task.

    The dreadful truth that had revealed itself to all the Espers at the end of the War of Chaos was difficult for many of them to accept: the use of magic now had to be subject to major restrictions, because each use consumed a part of the planet’s life source. Until then, in a thoughtless
