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…

    Eklea liked to hold on to this simple question. “In the end, what truly defines who you are?” It took time to reflect on such a question, and she knew that most Espers didn’t naturally ask themselves anything like this. When you become too attached to the possessions you own, they begin to define you.

    Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness. Human emotions may be what truly define us as “unique” among other living species. We find joy in the little pleasures life brings to us: the warmth of the sun rising in the morning, a cool breeze in summer, the beautiful colors of autumn leaves. Anger, sometimes, arises when we

    Among all, Vati was recognized as a true representation of Wisdom. But she liked to say that it was never a natural gift; it was nurtured with dedication and time. When asked how to persevere in becoming wiser, she would answer like this: “To keep an open mind and adapt to as many situations as

    The Seven Shapes reflected on what balance was truly about. “This isn’t about stillness,” said Vati, who liked the image of a wave to represent balance. Atma, the Shape of Balance, gently nodded in agreement. In some cultures, this idea was shown as light opposing darkness; in others, as the Yin and the Yang. It

    Shala, the Shape of Time, often discussed this topic with the other Shapes. Just like us humans, the Espers had a finite life. So how to spend their time until the end was a question that sparked many debates in Esperia. Some believed that since they had only a few years to live, living life

    Is this reality truly understood? When we look at how the governments of the richest countries behave, it doesn’t seem so. A consensus on climate change should be obvious. “Because others don’t act, why should we? We’ll just lose the economic war.” Well, since we — unfortunately? — share the same boat, and it’s the

    The StarDust, like all things, is governed by rules. With Vati’s guidance, the Seven Shapes soon came to understand this. And one of these rules concerned Willpower, and how its use was like drawing from a shared pool. Whenever an Esper used their will to take on tasks that were frustrating or required deep focus,

    This was one of the mottos of Kenko, the Shape of Health. “A bit of exercise every day is far more effective in the long run than one full day of training, followed by months of nothing.” Now that the StarDust is known by all the Espers, it makes complete sense. Shala always reminds the
