No Longer Being Confused

When Vati became the Shape of Wisdom, she was filled both with a deep sense of humility and with confusion before the gargantuan task that stood before her, as well as before the other Shapes.

“We simply have the mission of transforming the world so that it may finally become fair and equal for everyone…” she said, her voice trembling.

Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, who had long since become her closest friend, listened to her carefully before replying.

“If there is one thing I am certain of, it is that if you were chosen among everyone to become the Shape of Wisdom, then it is because you are the one best suited to face this mission.”

She continued.

“We now know that the StarDust exists, and we have assumed that by creating a society where it can grow within everyone, global harmony is no longer a dream, but a possible reality.”

“And now we also know how to help it grow, don’t we?” she smiled.

“Day after day…” murmured Vati, who understood what her lifelong friend was trying to tell her.

Vati wiped away the tears that had appeared from the fear this mission had awakened within her.

Her gaze changed, and the confusion in her eyes had disappeared.

“Let’s go. Let us finally create a world in harmony for everyone!” she exclaimed.

    Pros and Cons

    The Seven Shapes reflected on what balance was truly about. “This isn’t about stillness,” said Vati, who liked the image of a wave to represent balance. Atma, the Shape of Balance, gently nodded in agreement. In some cultures, this idea was shown as light opposing darkness; in others, as the Yin and the Yang. It…

    Early game or End game

    Shala, the Shape of Time, often discussed this topic with the other Shapes. Just like us humans, the Espers had a finite life. So how to spend their time until the end was a question that sparked many debates in Esperia. Some believed that since they had only a few years to live, living life…

    We are in the same boat

    Is this reality truly understood? When we look at how the governments of the richest countries behave, it doesn’t seem so. A consensus on climate change should be obvious. “Because others don’t act, why should we? We’ll just lose the economic war.” Well, since we — unfortunately? — share the same boat, and it’s the…

    A Shared Pool of Willpower

    The StarDust, like all things, is governed by rules. With Vati’s guidance, the Seven Shapes soon came to understand this. And one of these rules concerned Willpower, and how its use was like drawing from a shared pool. Whenever an Esper used their will to take on tasks that were frustrating or required deep focus,…

    This was one of the mottos of Kenko, the Shape of Health. “A bit of exercise every day is far more effective in the long run than one full day of training, followed by months of nothing.” Now that the StarDust is known by all the Espers, it makes complete sense. Shala always reminds the…

    Innocence

    The Seven Shapes understood that for the Espers to act in unison, there needed to be shared values and goals — a common foundation for a new beginning. Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, became a symbol of what must be protected, and of why working together was the only way forward. Her innocence was admired…
