Recognizing Your Own Faults

For the Espers, managing to recover the artifact of lightning, the spark of thunder, was perhaps the most difficult ordeal for most of them.

To do so, they had to cross a region known as the thunderstruck plains, where Aether had accumulated and given birth to a place where lightning struck randomly and without interruption.

Fortunately, this lightning was not dangerous in any way.

But each time an individual was struck by it, a flashback from their past life would reappear: sometimes pleasant moments, sometimes others far more difficult to relive, moments they had tried to forget out of shame or cowardice.

These thunderstruck plains forced anyone who crossed them to face their own reality and offered the right moment to acknowledge their own faults and finally move forward.

For understanding, first and foremost, that no one is perfect also means becoming more humble toward others, who, just like ourselves, must face each new day with very similar anxieties and fears, even if not everyone expresses them in the same way…

Recognizing your own faults is taking the first step toward a better future for everyone.

    Listening to Others and Listening to Yourself

    The Espers were, all things considered, rather curious beings.

    A World That Has Become Ultra-Complex

    The civilization of the Espers had been built over thousands of years, and for a newborn discovering the world, this meant trying to make connections between billions of objects and increasingly complex and abstract systems, in which billions of individuals were put to work, while no one could fully understand how they functioned anymore. And…

    Magic and Aether

    The excessive development of the Espers’ civilization through the use of magic had also made it possible to understand its consequences for the entire planet. Just as the Espers learn from their mistakes, perhaps irony had it that they would understand, decades later, the true gravity of their past actions. Magic had given them the…

    Accepting Our Mistakes

    No one, whoever they were, could change the face of the world alone. The Seven Shapes understood this well, and although they had now become the symbol of Esperia’s renewal, they also knew that the efforts would have to be made by everyone. And for that, first and foremost, it was important to accept one’s…

    No Nature, No Food

    As a civilization that considers itself advanced, it would seem obvious that the connection between nature, its benefits, and the fundamental need to sustain ourselves through the food it provides should be something everyone understands. The society of the Espers before the Chaos War, which had basked in luxury and consumption made possible through the…
