Rise and Fall

It had been a while since we last took a look at Guruko and Simba, her little platypus companion.

As they were studying human society on Earth, both were surprised and shocked by its development.

“How can these living beings sometimes be capable of creating such wonderful things, yet at other times be so cruel and damaging to their own planet…” wondered Guruko.

“Even if they may not realize it yet, balance naturally occurs on Earth as well. With life and death at its center, the way human beings act within it follows constant cycles of rise and fall,” said Simba.

“So, because there are living beings, is it natural that their way of living seems so paradoxical?” asked Guruko.

“In Esperia, the discovery of StarDust and Atma was the turning point that finally created a peaceful world. It may change for them too, if they become conscious of it,” he replied.

    The Seven Shapes had understood one thing: no Esper was born with knowledge of the world, its history, or its tragedies. For the young, sometimes left to themselves, they had understood that it was more than necessary to establish a charter capable of guiding them. Thus, Faya, the Shape of Will, thought that having a…

    In today’s lesson led by Kenko, the Shape of Health, the discussion was about the connection between physical and mental strength. A young Esper, a little surprised, asked:“Is there a connection between the two? I don’t really understand…” Kenko smiled gently. “Yes, the link is not easily visible if we have not taken the time…

    Since the birth of Atma, who had become the symbol of Balance, the Espers had understood one thing. True balance does not lie in a straight and continuously stable line, but is the result of fluctuations, like the waves of the sea that come and go. Gurumin, the Forme of Empathy, then connected this need…
