Hearts United Beyond Borders

Cha Cha, our favorite platypus, had a bold reflection.

“What if the harmony of society rested on the idea of hearts united beyond borders…”

    Beauty in sunny and rainy days

    “Why can’t every day be sunny? I don’t like it when it rains…” asked a young Esper. “Your point of view is very understandable,” replied Atma, the Shape of Balance. “But think about this: if it were sunny all the time, the nature of Esperia would be completely different, as it needs rain to grow.”…

    The Logical Order of Things
