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.

    The Basic Needs

    Kenko, the Shape of Health, was certain of one thing: unless the basic needs of the Espers were made a priority, Esperia would never know true peace.

    The “Modern World”

    Cha Cha, our platypus friend, was thinking about what the “Modern World” had become—and how paradoxical it was. Thanks to new technologies that turned machines into the world’s new servants, life had become easier for some of the richest countries. But this comfort came at the cost of irreversible damage to the environment—damage that was…

    Moderation

    Before the end of the Chaos War, the concept of moderation scarcely existed among the Espers.

  • Slowing Down

    Slowing Down

    Esperia was built and envisioned so that harmony and peace would be its foundations. Nature and all the creatures living within it created a virtuous circle, and the Espers — the magical beings — finally understood that the restriction on their use of magic served a greater purpose on their interconnected and limited planet. This…
