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.

    The Importance of Nuance

    The values of Esper civilization, decided following the end of the Chaos War, had been chosen not without difficulty, after sometimes long and tedious, yet essential, discussions about points and subjects that had never truly been addressed before.

    What Will the World Look Like for Future Generations

    If the answer to this question can only be a matter of supposition, one thing is certain: it is the choices made today that will shape the future for generations to come. The Seven Shapes understood well that the Espers, and their Shadow even more so, were creatures naturally inclined to think of themselves first.…

    A Movement on Two Fronts

    For the Seven Shapes, it had become obvious. To rebuild Esperia on sound foundations, it was necessary to act on two fronts simultaneously. The first was the systemic level: institutions needed to find the courage to impose laws consistent with shared values embraced by all the lands of the planet. The second was the development…

    Being an Adult

    At what moment do we truly become adults? Is it simply a question of age? Of experience? Isn’t being an adult, in the end, the awareness of our own responsibility toward others, and in particular toward future generations? In their desire to rebuild Esperia on healthier foundations, the Seven Shapes had placed this notion of…

    Remembering the Fundamentals

    Kenko, the Shape of Health, and the Great element of Earth were the perfect representation to remember how important the fundamentals were. Just as the ground lays the foundations for a solid structure, the element of earth was certainly, by nature, the element closest to these fundamentals. The world needed to return to the basics,…

    What Seems Obvious to Us…

    It is not necessarily so for others. And if this conclusion may seem trivial, we still have to have thought about it in order to perceive it. For when discussions become more heated and arguments begin to emerge, this awareness disappears beneath the veil of our Shadow, which then acts in our place when we…

    Global Understanding Impossible Without Compromise

    This was the conclusion that now seemed obvious to everyone, following the global disaster of the Chaos War. No understanding on a planetary scale would be possible without compromise. And the world before the war was far from being a world where making compromises came naturally. On the contrary, by exacerbating individualism, it had become…
