One Daily Tale

🌎

One

When the 7 Shapes first began working on their project, they thought about how to make the best use of the StarDust.

Because Shala was there, they understood that setting a daily time limit was essential to consider. They also all agreed that, for habits to be “realistically doable,” they needed to be simple and short.

They knew the Espers and their magical powers struggled to think about the world with a long-term perspective: it wasn’t in their nature. They preferred to enjoy quick and fleeting pleasures.

But the 7 Shapes understood that just a few minutes of work each day, repeated over years, could lead to mastery.

And because the StarDust required the combination of the Five Elemental Elements to truly take form, the idea of a short daily practice became clear.

Just One Step at a time.

Just One Daily Tale.

    Simba was a mysterious, monkey-like creature living in Esperia. Though not an Esper, through experience and trial and error, he had succeeded in developing his own version of the StarDust. But something was still missing. He often experienced a roller coaster of emotions—sometimes feeling very sad when imagining a world without the 7 Shapes, and…

Yes, the Esperia we’ve come to know wasn’t always full of harmony and peace! One day, in a fateful event, the Five Elements clashed with their strongest magic. Their powers fused into a radiant…

    “I don’t get it…” said a young Esper.“We need to take the time to choose how we choose our time?” Shala gently smiled and said:“I know it sounds funny. But if you remember Atma, the Shape of Balance, it will make more sense.” “The time you have in one day is limited. You can’t do…
