One Daily Tale

Learn to Learn

Guided by the 7 Shapes, the Espers realized that their StarDust was the result of the teachings shared by all of them.

One of the important things they also understood was that, no matter what they tried to do, the will to do it was extremely important.

The funny thing is, in order to learn, they had to learn how to do it!

The Elders taught the younger ones that they must always believe they could learn more.

Why is that?

Because every single Esper was born with their own inner StarDust.

How they would shape it, nurture it, and eventually develop it would depend on their own will.

And theirs alone.

The younger ones often wondered why they couldn’t just use magic to skip this tedious process.

“You should always remember that the StarDust shines its brightest when all the 7 Shapes are being kept in mind,” the Elders would say.

    To illustrate today’s lesson on Consciousness, Eklea had chosen an expression describing the attitude of the king of a small country who, ignorant of the rest of the world, believed himself to be the ruler of the greatest country in existence. A cunning Esper, himself rather arrogant, began to laugh and commented: “Another one who…

    Since the creation and publication of the writings of One Daily Tale, the Espers of all the Five Elements now had personal tasks to accomplish every day. These tasks concerned the development of each of the elements, and for the Wind, it was about cultivating empathy. At first, of course, the Espers, often unaccustomed to…

    When the Seven Shapes decided to try to rally the Five Elements behind a single cause, it seemed unrealistic, almost utopian. How could they change all the Espers, who until then had been fighting endlessly? And if the Esperia we have come to know together every day is now a haven of peace, at the…

    The Seven Shapes had understood one thing: no Esper was born with knowledge of the world, its history, or its tragedies. For the young, sometimes left to themselves, they had understood that it was more than necessary to establish a charter capable of guiding them. Thus, Faya, the Shape of Will, thought that having a…
