Know Your Shadow

With the help of StarDust, the Espers were now able to perceive their own Shadow.

This was the first step toward understanding themselves more deeply.

The 7 Shapes then turned their attention to the Shadow itself and began to study it in greater depth. Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, was especially intrigued by this discovery.

“So, the Shadow has always been there, within us.”

“But unless we awaken our StarDust, we cannot truly grasp what lies inside each of us.”

She realized that her own Element, Lightning—linked to Awareness—had allowed some Espers to catch a glimpse of the Shadow, even before the discovery of StarDust.

“So, awareness can help us see the Shadow, but only for a moment. To fully embrace it, the harmony of all the Elements is the true key.”

“With a bright StarDust, the Espers can now understand themselves more fully by knowing their Shadow. This is an essential step toward harmony and peace.”

    If the concept of the five elements often seemed rather abstract at first for young Espers, the element of Earth was certainly the easiest for them to understand first. Indeed, an Esper in good health is immediately noticeable among others: a more athletic body, neither too thin, showing a lack of physical exercise, nor too

    The Great Library of Esperia had become a life-sized example of what a civilization built on values shared by all could become, regardless of their main element or their origin. It would have been unimaginable just a few years earlier to see the Espers of the five different elements unite for a single common cause:
