Leading by Example

The Seven Shapes had understood one essential thing. For the Five elements, who had been fighting constantly until now, to finally reach a true and lasting peace, it was necessary to find common ground on which they could all rely, in order to rebuild new and healthy foundations for everyone.

“The StarDust is the perfect foundation for this,” thought Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“Indeed, it involves all the elements, which must help one another together, in harmony and balance,” continued Atma, the Shape of Balance.

“It is also essential for Espers with greater experience and recognition to lead by example. It is a difficult point, but an important one,” said Faya, the Shape of Willpower.

“Yes, this will be the first time we have decided on shared values that can serve as the foundations of a better world for everyone. The inertia of history until now will not fade so easily…” agreed Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness.

“And that is why we must act together, in the same direction,” continued Kenko, the Shape of Health.

“Now that we know Shala, the Shape of Time, we are more able to consider the limited time we have to spend on this planet. And therefore, to cherish even more the people we love,” continued Gurumin, the Shape of Compassion.

“Leading by example, through One Daily Tale. One simple tale each day, for a better world.”

    Once-in-a-lifetime

    “Every moment is a once-in-a-lifetime event,” Shala, the Shape of Time, would often remind the young Espers.

Even if circumstances may seem similar—for…

    Guruko and Simba, her platypus companion, continued to observe and learn from human society on Earth. It reminded them greatly of how Esperia was before the end of the Chaos War.

    Sincere and honest

    The Element of Wind focused on interactions with others more than the other elements. Of course, being of another element like Fire or Water didn’t prevent one from leaning toward this trait, but the Espers of the Wind had the most natural affinity for it. Instinctively, they could sense the presence of their inner Shadow,…

    There were many debates taking place in the Great Library of Esperia, a place where all the Espers of the Five Elements could gather, discuss with one another, and exchange ideas and opinions. Having different backgrounds made the discussions rather interesting, but the rules were set by the Seven Shapes so that there would be…
