Knowledge Put into Practice

During the period preceding the end of the War of Chaos, Faya, who had become the Form of Will, had never been known for her tact or moderation. On the contrary, as the most powerful user of the Fire element, she showed as much bravery as excess in her actions.

But the revelation of the StarDust before everyone’s eyes, along with the presence of Atma, the Form of Balance, became a true turning point for her.

Faya reflected and wrote in her journal.

“Just as, within us, our StarDust needs balance to shine more brightly, our actions for the community must also find that balance.”

“By acting without prior knowledge, we may make mistakes that could have been avoided by studying the problem more deeply.”

“But on the other hand, merely studying and analyzing things does not change an existing problem.”

“Our StarDust, which lies dormant within each of us, allows us to adapt and to change our behaviors.”

“When I think back to my youth, full of passion and boldness, unaware of the reality of the world we live in, I feel a little ashamed… But it also means that I have been able to change, and finally become aware of what must be done to rebuild Esperia.”

    It is now widely accepted that climate change is happening—and that its consequences are rather bleak. On top of that, we also understand that the fuels causing this crisis are limited, as are all resources on our shared planet, Earth. Meanwhile, the entire system remains rooted in a growth-oriented economy that fails to take into

    Isn’t it easy to simply watch what’s in front of our eyes and go on with our own lives? Yet what we can see now extends far beyond our neighborhood — the entire world is at our doorstep. Of course, no one can carry all the world’s problems on their own shoulders. But that doesn’t

    Kenko, the Shape of Health, was certain of one thing: unless the basic needs of the Espers were made a priority, Esperia would never know true peace. The right to proper sleep, and access to healthy food and clean water for all, were the very first steps toward creating a harmonious society. These fundamentals were

    The Shape of Awareness and Element of Lightning, Eklea, had quite an electric temperament. She loved to bounce from place to place, and as swiftly as roaring thunder, she would try to teach consciousness to anyone willing to listen. But when someone was truly all ears, she could also calm down, creating a gentle electrical

    Does this title sound cliché? I guess so. But is it true? Absolutely. Of course, the word love carries as many meanings as there are human beings on our shared planet. For most of us, the first love we experience is that of our mother, who carries us for months and cares for us by

    Cha Cha, our platypus friend, was thinking about what the “Modern World” had become—and how paradoxical it was. Thanks to new technologies that turned machines into the world’s new servants, life had become easier for some of the richest countries. But this comfort came at the cost of irreversible damage to the environment—damage that was

    Before the end of the Chaos War, the concept of moderation scarcely existed among the Espers. They preferred to spend their time wielding magic and battling one another, unaware of the consequences. The birth of Atma, the Shape of Balance, transformed life in Esperia. The Seven Shapes placed moderation as a core principle in the

    Esperia was built and envisioned so that harmony and peace would be its foundations. Nature and all the creatures living within it created a virtuous circle, and the Espers — the magical beings — finally understood that the restriction on their use of magic served a greater purpose on their interconnected and limited planet. This
