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.

    Trust as a Fundamental Value

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, had been entrusted with the extremely complex task of becoming the symbol of a peaceful society, regardless of the element.

    The end of the Chaos War had nevertheless, despite the ecological and civilizational devastation it had caused, brought with it perhaps, at last, the solutions needed to build a society living in harmony with nature and at peace.

    Personal Balance for Harmony with Others

    Balance, represented by Atma, the Shape of Balance, one of the Seven Shapes who had devoted herself to rebuilding Esperia in harmony with nature, as well as among the Espers of the Five elements, now held a special place within Esper civilization. The Seven Shapes had indeed come to understand that balance had to lie…

    Everything in Its Own Time

    The aftermath of the Chaos War on Esperia no longer resembled what it once had been. The use of magic was now subject to restrictions, which had profoundly changed the course of things: there was far less urgency, and far more contemplation of the present moment. Something that had long been forgotten during the period…

  • The Consequences of Our Actions

    The Consequences of Our Actions

    The presence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, had brought something precious and unprecedented to Esperia: a simpler understanding of the importance of balance.

  • The Freedom to Act

    The Freedom to Act

    Developing the element of Fire within one’s StarDust is certainly one of the most counterintuitive things to do. Why? Because it requires us to do things that frustrate us or that we simply do not feel like doing. It means holding back from eating or drinking too much, even during a truly delicious meal. It…

  • Balance at the Heart of Physical and Mental Health

    Balance at the Heart of Physical and Mental Health

    On Esperia too, health was often at the center of discussions, and for a good reason: seeing suffering is not something one wishes for, neither for oneself, nor for loved ones, nor for strangers, nor even for those who may have caused us harm. This last point may certainly lead to another debate, but a…
