Pure and Upright

The Five Elements were representations of the dimensional layers that had to be blended in order to truly understand one’s inner self.

Empathy was one of them, and when the Seven Shapes worked on a good description of compassion, they thought about what they saw in Gurumin: pureness.

Her character and attitude were pure and upright, and she always cared for others.

But she wasn’t perfect either. Kenko constantly argued with her to remind her that living a healthy life was also one of the important Elements to protect.

Like a child, she enjoyed the present moment, and she often had to be scolded by Shala because she wouldn’t think ahead.

Still, her personality was so delicate and warm that she was easy to get along with, and she became a guiding example for all the children of Esperia.
