Mental Health

Simba was a mysterious, monkey-like creature living in Esperia.

Though not an Esper, through experience and trial and error, he had succeeded in developing his own version of the StarDust.

But something was still missing.

He often experienced a roller coaster of emotions—sometimes feeling very sad when imagining a world without the 7 Shapes, and other times feeling overjoyed when seeing the young Espers full of happiness and unselfishness.

Both would literally make him cry his heart out.

He realized that while he was doing his best to follow the principles of the 7 Shapes, he also needed to care for his mental health.

He had heard from the Espers of Lightning that meditation could be helpful.

He had also heard that talking with a specialist might be a good practice.

And of course, taking care of his own StarDust was indispensable!

    The dreadful truth that had revealed itself to all the Espers at the end of the War of Chaos was difficult for many of them to accept: the use of magic now had to be subject to major restrictions, because each use consumed a part of the planet’s life source. Until then, in a thoughtless…
