Pure Heart

Cha Cha was looking at Guruko, who was humming a song she had heard from the birds of the nearby forest.

He thought to himself: “Guruko really has a pure heart.”

He reflected on how the planet Earth was plagued by raging wars, genocides, and inequity—and how many of its inhabitants were living, oblivious to the cruel reality.

“Even before they are born, babies can feel the outside world through the love of their mother, from within the womb.”

Guruko was not an exception: many living creatures on this Earth do not harbor ill intentions.

But how long a heart remains pure is a function of so many variables…

In Esperia, the 7 Shapes were the guides that protected the purity of the Espers, which manifested in their StarDust.

“We just need to rebuild the StarDust of humankind. We just need to make their brains healthy again.”

    For the Seven Shapes, trying at last to build a society that was fair for everyone was no simple task.

    Like clouds drifting peacefully across the sky, or nature itself, free and carefree, a way of life distant from the material world was increasingly favored on Esperia. The intensive use of magic had indeed forever destabilized the climate, and Aether, the life source of the planet, had reached a critical threshold and was close to…

    Vangel, our little dog friend of the Fire element, gazed deeply into the future that The Seven Shapes were trying to create through One Daily Tale. “This is a task that seems so difficult…” he thought. And for good reason, the understanding of the world, following the end of the War of Chaos, had highlighted…

    The discovery of the StarDust had led the Espers to take a closer interest in how to develop it. One thing was clear in any case: it already shone extremely brightly, naturally, during pregnancy, but also throughout childhood. The Seven Shapes had therefore thought it necessary to create a society that promotes the healthy growth…

    Simba, our little monkey friend, had roamed across the lands of the different elements. He had noticed one thing: while the elements differ on paper, the behaviors of the Espers were often the same, regardless of the element. He could see carefree young Espers, parents worried by the news of the day, disparities between the…

    Cha Cha, our dear little platypus friend, was discussing one of his theories with Guruko. “When you think about a relationship on equal terms, we don’t usually think about comparing individuals from different countries. We often remain focused on a given country, often the one of our birth.” he thought. “Isn’t that normal? Many people…

    Can we truly speak of equality of opportunity at birth when the place and conditions in which one is born vary greatly from one region of the planet to another? This was the reflection upon which Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had been focusing. The end of the War of Chaos had revealed that the…
