Healthy Growth

The discovery of the StarDust had led the Espers to take a closer interest in how to develop it.

One thing was clear in any case: it already shone extremely brightly, naturally, during pregnancy, but also throughout childhood.

The Seven Shapes had therefore thought it necessary to create a society that promotes the healthy growth of children as early as possible; and since the time of pregnancy was also involved, the circle was complete.

It was necessary to make society healthier as a whole.

“Given the society we know, the starting point is quite far from our goal,” declared Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness.

“Yes, but now that we know the StarDust develops thanks to the five elements, we also now have the main guidelines to follow in order to reach our objective!” exclaimed Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

Kenko, the Shape of Health, continued:

“For a healthy society, we must allow the healthy growth of the youngest. And that requires excellent health, both physical and mental, for our dear children.”

“We must think about the future in the long term, and not stop at immediate profits, which are often harmful when viewed more broadly: protecting the environment or refocusing on ‘good values’ must finally become central to our discussions.”

    The Fountain of Wisdom

    There was a place in the heart of the Land of the Shape of Wisdom, Esperia, where every young Esper had to visit when their StarDust began to take shape. It was called the Fountain of Wisdom. Deep beneath the ground of Esperia flowed a natural fountain, whose waters spread into rivers that bathed all

    The Basic Physiological Needs

    On Esperia, instead of food or water, the Espers could replenish their magical energy by being in contact with nature—by being gently caressed by the flow of water, and by feeling the flowery breeze of the wind passing through the leaves. They also needed to sleep, so that their StarDust could recharge and shine brightly

    Open your mind

    In Esperia, when the 7 Shapes wrote One Daily Tale, they thought deeply about one aspect that was utterly important: having an open mind. Why? Because it was one of the fundamental keys to creating a world filled with harmony. With an open mind, two seemingly opposite ideas can eventually merge into one. The concept

    To act or not to act

    That is the question. Or more precisely, why should we act—or not? I understand you may be skeptical about trying to do things for other adults, who themselves have the choice to act or not. But children don’t, and it becomes a responsibility—whether we like it or not. We are all born in different places,
