Promising future

The discovery of the StarDust and how to nurture it was a first among the many civilizations Shala had seen throughout time and space.

Esperia was the first planet where the living creatures we know as the Espers had come to understand their inner StarDust.

“Knowing that may be the key to a promising future…” Shala hoped.

The Seven Shapes had indeed succeeded in creating a world of peace and harmony, based on principles that guided the Espers to develop their StarDust and make it brighter.

“When one’s inner StarDust becomes brighter, their future and that of their surroundings are also embraced by its light,” said Vati, the Shape of Wisdom.

“This is then the responsibility of every one of us, to become examples for others, especially the youngest,” continued Faya, the Shape of Willpower.

“The more we do so, the easier it becomes, because we are constantly influenced by others. Once we realize this, it becomes natural to try our best, for the sake of our loved ones and our planet,” added Eklea, the Shape of Awareness.

    The end of the War of Chaos had revealed not only the StarDust, but also the artifacts of each element. For water, it was the Prism of Wisdom.

    For the Seven Shapes, this was certainly one of the most daunting challenges. How could they make moderation appealing when the Shadow of the Espers so often drove them to act against it? First of all, the presence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, was, just as with the other Shapes and their respective elements,…

    From then on, with Shala, the Shape of Time, placing greater emphasis on it, thinking about the future had become a normal part of life for the Espers since the end of the War of Chaos. The Espers were not naturally creatures who placed the future first. On the contrary, their Shadow urged them more…

    Now that Esperia had been rebuilt on new foundations, which seemed obvious to have been put in place after careful reflection, thinking back to the world as it had been just before the War of Chaos seemed unreal. “How could we possibly have behaved like that?” wondered a young Esper, incredulous as he studied the…

    Whether they wanted it or not, every new Esper brought into the world was part of a whole: a family, a clan, an elemental region, the civilization of the Espers as a whole… Until very recently, it had been inconceivable for Espers of different elements to even attempt to communicate with one another. Simply because…

    Even though Esper society had changed greatly with the use of magic, an analogy with previous civilizations, some of which had disappeared, was still possible at its core. Whatever the era, fundamental needs, whether food or sleep, had always existed. Having easier or more difficult access to these needs had, moreover, often been the reason…

    Every Esper had this Shadow within them, which acted in their place whenever they failed to act consciously. Imperceptible until the discovery of the StarDust that brought an end to the Chaos War, this Shadow was nevertheless the one that had built their civilization until then. This Shadow, which favored immediate gains for its host,…
