In All Simplicity

It is very easy and natural to believe that we are the center of the Earth.

And in a society increasingly concerned with individual freedoms, this way of thinking can only spread.

Yet it is just as easy to take even a few minutes to reflect on the situation as a whole.

By zooming out, we can easily see the people close to us, the place where we live, the country that welcomes us, the gigantic mass of liquid water that makes up the oceans, the planet floating in the vastness of space, and then perceive the stars, near and ever more distant…

But returning to everyday life quickly makes us forget all of this, and the weight of a society that pushes us toward consumption does not help us live simply.

In all simplicity.

It could be the slogan of Esperia’s renewal, this planet where the beings who had mastered the use of magic were not unlike those of our world.

In all simplicity.

It was the choice of life behind a philosophy shared by everyone since the end of a war that had radically changed the planetary ecosystem.

They too had made choices throughout the existence of their civilization.

But it was also the first time that choosing simplicity had become the norm on a global scale.
