One Daily Tale

🌎

Losing sight of priorities

The birth of Atma, the Shape of Balance, when the StarDust was discovered at the end of the Chaos War, was a revelation that transformed Esperia into the world of peace whose tales we now narrate.

While the Espers of the different Elements held only a faint awareness of one another, it was only recently that they finally understood they were beings meant to work together, hand in hand, in order to know themselves better.

Atma, the Shape of Balance, now stood among them as the incarnation of what their priorities should be: living in harmony with the nature of their planet, while working together to develop the StarDust within themselves.

By doing so, each Esper could finally notice the Shadow that lies within them, the unconsciousness that so often makes decisions in their stead.

The priorities of Esperia now rested on concrete values that could be observed within each Esper: their own StarDust.

With this in mind, the Seven Shapes began the work of writing guidelines for everyone, including themselves, so that they too could become living examples of their teachings.

    Kenko, the Shape of Health and Element of Earth, wasn’t the flashiest of all the Shapes, but she was always considered the one you could truly rely on.

    Who is really an NPC? If we take the analogy of one’s personal life as the main character in a game, then you are the hero of your story, surrounded by billions of NPCs. But what if you don’t think for yourself and simply act as dictated? Then you become an NPC in your own

    When One Daily Tale was created from Vati’s vision, it was decided that prioritizing the education of the Espers from their earliest years was essential. “Children are like blank pages, ready to absorb any color. Now that we understand the existence of StarDust within every living being in Esperia, shouldn’t we fill this page with

Her magic wove the five elements into flowing threads, combining them like a dance. When some elements grew stronger, others gently made way, allowing

    In Esperia, caring for one’s StarDust soon became one of the most important duties an Esper received from the youngest age. Why? Simply because the Seven Shapes understood that with healthy habits came the ease of accomplishing good things without needing much effort or attention. They also knew that with the existence of magic, Espers
