One Daily Tale

🌎

Peaceful and calm

When they began writing One Daily Tale, the Seven Shapes understood that to unite all the Espers of the five different Elements, it was essential to create bonds linking each of them.

The discovery of the StarDust was the key element that had been missing all along—until now!

It was the common thread among all Espers, and it could now serve as a reference point for working together toward a peaceful and calm planet, where all five Elements finally collaborated.

“Until now, the differences between the Elements made us distrust each other. This is how our instincts work, and it helped us survive until now,” said Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“But now that we know about the StarDust that lies within everyone, it can become the principle we all trust—a reference for all, no matter which Element we come from!” continued Eklea, the Shape of Awareness.

“It will require effort—from all of us. Especially those with greater magical power, and those who have been blessed with wealth since birth… This will require change from everyone. Not an easy task…” wondered Faya, the Shape of Willpower.

“Yes, but we also know that working together as one has always been the key to peace. The StarDust…” concluded Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy.

    If there is one Shadow that causes a great deal of harm, whether on an individual scale or on a broader scale, it is surely that of Empathy. It often takes control of behavior when emotions speak for themselves: anger, fear, suspicion. It is often said that the beings who can hurt us the most…

    As for Wisdom, the Shadow within each of the Espers was no less present. On the contrary, when faced with difficult questions or complex problems, this Shadow would often avoid the real issue and instead answer something simpler, something it was capable of solving without effort. That was why the Espers sometimes behaved in contradictory…

    In a world of choices that seemed almost infinite, where overconsumption had been made possible by the abundance resulting from the use of magic, the Espers were overwhelmed by sensory stimuli and bombarded with information. It was difficult, then, for the Shadow present within each Esper to make the choices that would promote the balance…

    The Shadow that resides within each Esper has the unfortunate tendency to prioritize short-term benefits for its host. When an Esper reacts unconsciously, their Shadow takes over and acts in their place. Instead of thinking about the long term, which is difficult and requires time, effort, and concentration, their Shadow prefers the lure of an…

    “Without light, no shadow can appear; there is only darkness.” Cha Cha, our platypus friend, had attended a public event where silence was expected. Yet among the audience, two spectators paid little attention to this rule and kept talking, disturbing the people around them. This experience led him to reflect on the Shadow that belongs…

    Let us continue our little journey exploring the Shadow that slumbers within every Esper and reveals itself unconsciously. Today, let us take a closer look at the Shadow of Willpower. Yesterday, Kenko, the Shape of Health, explained how our Shadow sometimes acts against our long-term well-being. When it comes to responsibility and willpower, the Shadow…

    The Espers were now learning to perceive their Shadow by developing their StarDust. Thanks to the efforts of the Seven Shapes and their writings, which took the form of One Daily Tale, their civilization now embraced, among its founding values, the daily balance of the five elements, allowing their StarDust to flourish. For the element…

    The discovery of the StarDust had revealed the existence of a Shadow within every Esper. Long ago, some philosophers already spoke of the importance of knowing oneself, and Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, believed that what they were truly referring to was this Shadow. “This Shadow is a part of us. It is neither good…
