Limit Break

The Seven Shapes and the Espers agreed on rules concerning what they called a Limit Break.

Now that the flow of Aether was understood, as well as StarDust as a source, it became a rule for every Esper to limit their use of magic in order to maintain equilibrium.

However, it was also decided that in times of emergency, a Limit Break could be an exception.

By using a Limit Break, an Esper would be able to wield more magic than their usual limitations allowed.

But to preserve harmony and peace, strict conditions were established, and everyone agreed that these restrictions were essential for the prosperity of Esperia.

As each Esper was unique, each Esper’s Limit Break was unique as well.

    The Espers were, all things considered, rather curious beings. Their history, spanning several tens of thousands of years, had led them, not without difficulties, to control their planet, to the point of being capable of impacting its global ecosystem. The discovery and use of magic had accelerated the evolution of their civilization, but they also…

    The civilization of the Espers had been built over thousands of years, and for a newborn discovering the world, this meant trying to make connections between billions of objects and increasingly complex and abstract systems, in which billions of individuals were put to work, while no one could fully understand how they functioned anymore. And…

    The excessive development of the Espers’ civilization through the use of magic had also made it possible to understand its consequences for the entire planet. Just as the Espers learn from their mistakes, perhaps irony had it that they would understand, decades later, the true gravity of their past actions. Magic had given them the…

    Esperia was rebuilding itself slowly but surely, upon foundations that now seemed right in everyone’s eyes. The StarDust and its existence had become widely accepted, and the initiatory journey that each Esper had to undertake to recover their own artifacts had become part of everyday life, far more quickly than the Seven Shapes had ever…

    On Esperia, the quest to recover the Seven Artifacts was now considered the essential foundation for entering adult life. Indeed, this adventure made it possible to learn about the world by crossing the lands of the five elements, and to better understand the sometimes abstract notions of time and balance. But above all, it also…

    No one, whoever they were, could change the face of the world alone. The Seven Shapes understood this well, and although they had now become the symbol of Esperia’s renewal, they also knew that the efforts would have to be made by everyone. And for that, first and foremost, it was important to accept one’s…

    As a civilization that considers itself advanced, it would seem obvious that the connection between nature, its benefits, and the fundamental need to sustain ourselves through the food it provides should be something everyone understands. The society of the Espers before the Chaos War, which had basked in luxury and consumption made possible through the…

    Gathering the seven artifacts was a quest that was also, perhaps above all, an adventure that allowed them to learn to better understand themselves. Who has never been surprised to hear their own voice, or to see themselves move and speak? So many small moments that allow us to become a little more aware of…
