Into Uncharted Territory

In ancient times, on the planet that would later be known as Esperia, the Espers lived in five separate lands, knowing nothing of one another’s existence.

Their development was shaped by the qualities of the food found in their lands and by the resources available to them. This led them to awaken their own magical powers through the Aether present in each land.

They were driven by an unconscious desire for more, and the discovery of uncharted territory became a way to display their powers.

Shala, the Shape of Time, who had witnessed many civilizations across the multitude of dimensions touched by Time, had seen such patterns of development countless times.

“Maybe there will be a civilization that joins forces and unites before it exhausts all the resources of its planet,” she murmured, with a hint of pessimism.

Now that we know of Esperia, led by the Seven Shapes and guided by the writings of One Daily Tale, we also know that such a civilization does exist.
“It was possible!” she exclaimed, hope shining in her eyes—for all the other civilizations that exist across every dimension.
