Equally and Fairly
Faced with the immense task that the reconstruction of Esperia represented, the need to rethink the world as a whole had finally reached the center of discussions. “We now finally understand that we share one single planet,” began Vati, the Shape of Wisdom. “We also understand that the five elements, as different as they may
-
Adaptability
The Espers were now faced with a major problem. Without realizing it, until now, they had gradually damaged their environment while consuming the life energy of the planet, the Aether. They had no idea that the use of their elemental magic was the cause.It had become so natural to them that having to restrain themselves
-
Simple and Clear
Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, often reflected long and deeply on how to promulgate the principles of One Daily Tale.One thing was becoming more and more evident in her eyes. “Newborns come into this world without any knowledge of the world in which they will live. They are blank pages that will naturally absorb the
-
Long-Term Vision
The end of the Chaos War was the perfect opportunity to finally rebuild Esperia on solid foundations that had until now been ignored. Vati, the Form of Wisdom, was worried about how things would unfold, for it required envisioning the world in the long term. “Many Espers will resist making the necessary changes…” she thought.Indeed,

A Brilliant Argument
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

Avoiding Unfounded Rumors
“We do not change completely from one day to the next. The years of conflict between the five elements will not be fully resolved in the blink of an eye. Nevertheless, now that common foundations have been established for everyone, it has become imperative to avoid continuing to spread unfounded rumors,” declared Vati, the Shape
-
Unfounded
To rebuild Esperia from the perspective of harmony between the different elements, it was essential to question unfounded truths. Centuries of war and history cannot disappear in a single instant. Prejudices and unfounded rumors persist. It was on these very points that the Water Espers, guided by the Forme of Wisdom Vati, bore the heavy
-
Useless Debates
The Seven Shapes didn’t get where they are by pleasing the people or by relying on their magic. For the Five Elements, the Shapes were known as the strongest at that time, yet it was not through force that they chose to lead by example. On the contrary, their effort to write the principles of
-
Incomplete measures
If there is one thing the Seven Shapes never failed to do since they wrote One Daily Tale, it was to lead by example. They understood very well the importance each individual held in creating a world of peace, and as the leaders of each Element, the Five Great Elements bore the difficult responsibility of
-
Accepting differences
Now that Esperia was finally at peace, it became natural for the five different Elements to work together and share their knowledge and skills. When they were still at war, they simply couldn’t realize—blinded by hatred and fear of others—the need for the other Elements to sustain their own land. Water, through rivers, lakes, or
