Learning Every Day

A deeper understanding of the StarDust present within every Esper had led Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, to emphasize the importance of learning every day.

Since the hours of sleep allow knowledge to settle more easily into our minds, making the most of this time each day helped the Espers develop more easily.

The universe is filled with mysteries yet to be discovered, whether they are the countless constellations, stars and planets, the depths of the oceans, or the microscopic world invisible to the naked eye.

To keep learning is also to keep nurturing humility and to realise just how superficial the knowledge of each and every one of us is, no matter who we are, when faced with the vastness of all there is to know.

Daily learning also helps nurture the element of water, which is associated with wisdom and is one of the five essential elements needed to make one’s StarDust shine.

It is therefore also a way to learn more about ourselves, by nurturing the curiosity that sometimes fades with time, yet is so natural to children.

Learning every day is therefore also a way to rediscover the childlike spirit that is all too easily lost in the turmoil of the society we live in, a secret passage leading to true freedom.

  • Simple Values

    Simple Values

    Rebuilding Esperia was no easy task. The civilization of the Espers had gradually turned away from what truly mattered, and the simple values, though essential to the proper functioning of a society that was difficult to manage, were fading away. The Seven Shapes had understood this problem well and were doing everything they could to…

    Now Is the Best Time to Act After Yesterday

    Who has never told themselves that they would start adopting new habits tomorrow? And for whom has that tomorrow never actually arrived? These were the words that opened the day’s discussion about the importance of Time in the corridors of the Great Library of Esperia. The reconstruction of Esperia was progressing slowly but surely, following…

    Unity Is Strength

    One thing was certain. Even if the Seven Shapes, by writing One Daily Tale, tried to preach words of peace and harmony for all, they could not act in place of the billions of other Espers, all of whom had a role to play in this global system. Whether the richest technocrats or the poorest…

    Feeling of Guilt

    Sometimes, the message conveyed by the Seven Shapes could hurt the feelings of some Espers, even making them feel guilty. Faya, the Shape of Willpower, was certainly the one who most infuriated the Espers who were still attached to their former way of life. Her words, it is true, could put people on the spot…

    Taking Care of One’s Health

    As was so often the case, the Espers’ lack of self-awareness led them to neglect things that were nevertheless essential, and their own health was one of them. Many of them did not realise just how much they neglected their physical well-being, of course, but also their mental well-being, by making little effort to look…

    Overcoming Excessive Individualism

    Rebuilding Esperia required rethinking society from a new perspective, sometimes at the risk of questioning certain principles that had become the new foundations of a declining civilisation. For decades, the advancement of technology through the use of magic had allowed the Espers to become increasingly individualistic. Under the banner of personal freedom, everyone acted more…

    For the Children of the World

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, often reminded adult Espers who sometimes lacked empathy that, as responsible adults, they had a duty to set an example for the younger generations. She did not, of course, deny the personal circumstances that could make emotions stronger than reason. But for all the children of the world, adults now…
