My Heart Will Go On

Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, understood more than anyone else the power of sound and music to soothe minds.

It was soon discovered that music held a mysterious ability: to create a harmonious resonance among all the StarDusts who heard the same song.

Gurumin naturally loved to hum sweet melodies which, as the Element of Wind, could be carried by a gentle breeze to all who wished to listen.

These melodies had the power to calm, to reinvigorate, and even to help in difficult times, such as the loss of a loved one.

Gurumin often said:

“This isn’t about forgiving, nor forgetting. It is about letting your heart finally release, and begin its journey to move on. This is a task only you can do. But as long as you care for your StarDust, the path will appear clear before you. All you must do is follow it.”

    On Esperia, the laws of physics were very different from those we know on Earth. This allowed the Espers to use magical powers. But they were also deeply aware of the land they lived in, and the natural presence of the 7 Shapes always reminded them that they needed to live in balance with the

    For any human being reading these lines, you have been given a life ticket—one you couldn’t refuse. You own this ticket, and you alone. How you choose to use it is entirely up to you. The kind of ticket you received may seem quite random: you may have been born into a wealthy family in

    There is a certain irony in how the human brain works: for us to learn and grow, we also need to fail personally. Babies do it naturally when trying to grab objects, sit up, or learn how to walk: they try, fail, try again, fail again… When this was understood by the Espers on Esperia,

    Cha Cha liked studying human civilization and the various inventions humans had created—especially sports. One of them in particular captured his attention: climbing. He saw in it a philosophy of life: “You get to battle with yourself. You fail a lot, but try again a lot, and eventually succeed—or not. Sometimes what you lack is

    We can be taught many things. But others can only bring us to the doors—we must open them with our own hands. Opening those doors will be up to you. And you alone. Some doors are harder to open. Others you won’t even know exist—until you meet new people or live new experiences. Some doors

    What truly defines us as humans? What sets us apart from other species? Not our physical strength, nor our intelligence. It is our social abilities—our capacity to form groups of many individuals—that have led the human species to eventually dominate the Earth. Empathy is our ability to understand and share the feelings of another. It

    One of the most underrated “skills” to learn is language. For those lucky enough to have had access to education, the use of language in all its forms—be it speaking, reading, or writing—may seem obvious and trivial. But it isn’t trivial at all. Mastering a language is one of the key skills to develop. Why?

    In just a few hundred years, the shape of the Earth has drastically changed—mostly due to the use of fossil fuels that created the “world of abundance” we live in today. While this allowed some countries to thrive on this new “black gold,” when we realize that this resource is, first, not infinite, and second,
