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.

    Like clouds drifting peacefully across the sky, or nature itself, free and carefree, a way of life distant from the material world was increasingly favored on Esperia. The intensive use of magic had indeed forever destabilized the climate, and Aether, the life source of the planet, had reached a critical threshold and was close to…

    Vangel, our little dog friend of the Fire element, gazed deeply into the future that The Seven Shapes were trying to create through One Daily Tale. “This is a task that seems so difficult…” he thought. And for good reason, the understanding of the world, following the end of the War of Chaos, had highlighted…

    The discovery of the StarDust had led the Espers to take a closer interest in how to develop it. One thing was clear in any case: it already shone extremely brightly, naturally, during pregnancy, but also throughout childhood. The Seven Shapes had therefore thought it necessary to create a society that promotes the healthy growth…

    Simba, our little monkey friend, had roamed across the lands of the different elements. He had noticed one thing: while the elements differ on paper, the behaviors of the Espers were often the same, regardless of the element. He could see carefree young Espers, parents worried by the news of the day, disparities between the…

    Cha Cha, our dear little platypus friend, was discussing one of his theories with Guruko. “When you think about a relationship on equal terms, we don’t usually think about comparing individuals from different countries. We often remain focused on a given country, often the one of our birth.” he thought. “Isn’t that normal? Many people…

    Can we truly speak of equality of opportunity at birth when the place and conditions in which one is born vary greatly from one region of the planet to another? This was the reflection upon which Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had been focusing. The end of the War of Chaos had revealed that the…

    The self-regulation of organisms, which tends to bring them back to a state of balance when there is a fluctuation in levels, is now well understood. Thus, excesses — whether too much or too little — are detected, and systems are set in motion to return to a balanced value beneficial to the continuation of…
