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.”

    The functioning of Esper society was based on a simple concept, but one that was now causing a serious problem: nature has no price. The Espers had freely taken control of the land, rivers, and seas, without ever needing to provide anything in return. For decades, recent technologies had also begun to reach the skies:…
