One Daily Tale

🌎

It can’t be done overnight

Though the discovery of the StarDust was a huge leap forward for Esperia, there was still a lot of work to do.

Indeed, some Espers still couldn’t believe in it and did not accept the fact that they had within them a Shadow they couldn’t control.

However, the Seven Shapes truly believed that harmony in their world could only be achieved when resonance among all living beings was finally reached.

“It is hard work that cannot be done overnight. The way the StarDust works requires nurturing it daily, and the Five Elements at its base are like seeds that need to be gently watered, little by little,” said Shala.

Shala, the Shape of Time, did her best to guide the Espers, reminding them that it is through healthy habits that the StarDust shines the brightest.

“And when our StarDust shines, we are finally able to glimpse our Shadow and try to understand it,” concluded Vati.

    The Espers weren’t creatures made to consider the future as their first priority.They were similar to human beings in many ways: they had to eat and rest. Esperia, their planet, also had a star it revolved around, creating a cycle of day and night that influenced when they were awake or asleep. With all these
