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.

“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.
