Radiant and Innocent

The youngest Espers all shared the radiant and innocent purity that belongs to children.

This allowed them to naturally use the Wind element, regardless of their base element.

Now that the link between magic and the StarDust had been established, the Espers finally understood that every magic was in reality the emanation of their own being.

For the Wind element, Empathy was the key, and that is why the young Espers were naturally imbued with this element.

In the past, this often surprised the adults, because few Espers developed elements other than the one they had been taught.

If no one had asked the question of why until then, the answer was nevertheless simple: the innocence of the young made access to the Wind element possible.

This innocence is often not lost in adults. It is simply buried, sometimes deep within them, sometimes less so. But always locked inside a small cage that only asks to be opened again.

Where is the key to this cage?
It is right there, within each of us.

How can it be found?

Well, it is simple.

First, one only needs to take the first step, listen to one’s heart again, and let it speak.

    The Values That Matter

    At the end of one’s life, what will we regret not having done more of in our own unique journey? For many, in the modern societies of the richest nations ruling this planet—and mostly destroying its nature and our only living habitat called Earth—the regret won’t be about money, time spent working, or the possessions

    Just a Little Time, but Daily

    Shala, the Shape of Time, understood better than anyone how powerful habits were for the Espers.

    Kenko, the Shape of Health, was certain of one thing: unless the basic needs of the Espers were made a priority, Esperia would never know true peace. The right to proper sleep, and access to healthy food and clean water for all, were the very first steps toward creating a harmonious society. These fundamentals were
