Nurture your StarDust

In Esperia, the Espers had perfectly grasped the importance of nurturing their StarDust—not only for their own good, but for the world they lived in and the other species around them.

Shala reminded them that they needed to appreciate the time they had to do things, as the hours in a day were limited.

Atma taught them about the limitations of the world they lived in, and that even if they could use magic, no magic could restore land that had been utterly destroyed.

Vati explained how the different elements each Esper possessed were a strength, and how working together was the path to harmony.

Gurumin gently narrated stories of ancient Espers, often unknown, who had helped the weaker ones and devoted their magic to building a better life in Esperia for all.

Eklea focused on nurturing curiosity, so the Espers would remain aware not only of themselves, but also of the world around them.

Kenko showed them that a healthy lifestyle was achievable for anyone.

And Faya cheered them on—to embrace new challenges, or sometimes, to simply begin to act.

    Now that the seeds for developing the StarDust had been sown among the Espers all over the world, they needed to be nurtured and allowed to grow. This work had to be done every day and become a new habit for it to bear fruit. Perhaps this was ultimately the most difficult thing for them,…

    When the Seven Shapes first explained the principles of One Daily Tale, a silence could be heard throughout the entire world. It was so simple that it left many of them perplexed, as they had expected far-fetched theories, unreasonable efforts, or even a return to the Stone Age. There was nothing of the sort. It…

    Since the end of the Chaos War, the Espers around the world were finally trying to find a path for their civilization that would lead them toward balance with nature. This balance had been lost for thousands of years, and had accelerated with each new revolution of their system. The use of magic had intensified…

    Each Esper saw the world in a different way. But the reality of the physical world in which they all lived was, indeed, shared by all. In this context, some Espers were more aware of their vision of the world and of how closely it reflected reality. Children, who were born without any knowledge, could…

    The Espers throughout the world had the unfortunate tendency to think of themselves as the center of the world. And with good reason, each one was truly the main character of their own story, so how could they be blamed for putting their choices or their own well-being and comfort first? But sometimes, or even…

    Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands. Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves. Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those…
