Losing unity

Once again, Guruko and her platypus companion Cha Cha were observing human society on Earth.

Cha Cha, also known as Simba as his pen name (he wants to become a philosopher-writer!), was thinking about the two different paths that seemed possible for humanity regarding the new technology they were now developing.

“Once again, it seems these human beings can’t find a way to harmonize, even though they now understand that they share the same planet and should unite as one common species…”

Guruko continued, “That’s true. If Esperia were to lose the unity it has built since the creation of One Daily Tale by the Seven Shapes, it might begin to resemble what we are observing in their civilization.”

“The whole plan to develop the StarDust in every Esper was the first time true unity ever found its place, as a common goal for everyone,” thought Cha Cha.

“Yes, but this time, the development of their current technology may push their own species into an unknown chaos,” sighed Guruko.

“Hey, but you know, the Esperia we now know was built at the end of the Chaos War. Maybe they, too, will have to understand the hard way—and perhaps this kind of revelation is shared by many civilizations throughout the universes!” said Cha Cha.

    Critical Thinking

    In Esperia, there was an extremely valuable skill that was slowly being developed by all the Espers: critical thinking.

They understood that living in the present moment…
