Happy New Year! Have a Good Health!

Guruko and Simba, her cute platypus companion, enjoyed watching humankind’s civilization on Earth. Today was a special day for them, as they celebrated their planet having completed a full rotation around its star, called the Sun.

They didn’t really understand why humans were happy about that, but they guessed it was also an occasion for them to feel joyful during the harsh winter.
Guruko noticed that they often wished good health for their loved ones.

On Esperia, Kenko, the Shape of Health, is here to remind the Espers that good health is a core element of a brighter StarDust. When you are healthy, you are able to accomplish more for your loved ones, and you can develop greater willpower to confront difficulties and adversities.

Simba wondered, “On Earth, Kenko isn’t known, so they have to remind themselves about good health. What they call a new year is a way for them to do so.”

Guruko and Simba looked at each other, smiled, and imitated the humans: “Happy New Year! Have Good Health!”

    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

    Eklea and Vati soon became very good friends. Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, always loved asking questions, which came to her mind as swiftly as her Element of Lightning. In Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, she found a companion who would always listen and think along with her. Vati was often surprised by the questions

    The Seven Shapes understood that for the Espers to act in unison, there needed to be shared values and goals — a common foundation for a new beginning. Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, became a symbol of what must be protected, and of why working together was the only way forward. Her innocence was admired

    Just as being able to say “I don’t know” is a sign of wisdom, wanting to know—rather than passively accepting things as truth—is yet another mark of it. “It is so easy to accept facts as they are, without trying to understand whether they are true or the reasons behind them,” taught Vati, the Shape

    Shala and Vati discussed extensively the development of StarDust throughout the lifetime of an Esper. One of their conclusions was that even before the birth of a new Esper, the time spent in the mother’s womb had already begun to shape what its future StarDust would eventually become. Broadly speaking, childhood is the “decisive time.”

    We now understand that humans are drawn to stories. Long before the digital era—or even before writing—knowledge was passed down through generations by stories told aloud. Whenever someone tells a story, it is no longer reality but a fiction that carries beliefs within it. The natural fear of danger within our species makes us adopt
