Simple and Clear

Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, often reflected long and deeply on how to promulgate the principles of One Daily Tale.
One thing was becoming more and more evident in her eyes.

“Newborns come into this world without any knowledge of the world in which they will live. They are blank pages that will naturally absorb the rules and values of the moment around them.”

“These must therefore be expressed simply and clearly, so that they can be understood by the greatest number.”

“By calmly reflecting on the state of Esperia as a whole up to the war of Chaos, the policies and the rules, in almost every domain, are extremely complex. No Esper is capable of understanding everything. This creates inequalities inherent to the environment in which one grows up.”

Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, who was observing Vati, approached her and said:

“Understanding how the world works is a realization that can be easier to accept when it is acquired at a young age, isn’t it?”

Vati and Eklea were childhood friends, and despite being of different elements, a mutual respect had very quickly formed between them.

Vati smiled and said:
“Exactly, and that is why we must rethink education for all, and simplify and clarify the codes that govern Esperia…”

    Everything in Its Own Time

    The aftermath of the Chaos War on Esperia no longer resembled what it once had been. The use of magic was now subject to restrictions, which had profoundly changed the course of things: there was far less urgency, and far more contemplation of the present moment.

    The presence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, had brought something precious and unprecedented to Esperia: a simpler understanding of the importance of balance.

    The Freedom to Act

    Developing the element of Fire within one’s StarDust is certainly one of the most counterintuitive things to do. Why? Because it requires us to do things that frustrate us or that we simply do not feel like doing. It means holding back from eating or drinking too much, even during a truly delicious meal. It…

    Balance at the Heart of Physical and Mental Health

    On Esperia too, health was often at the center of discussions, and for a good reason: seeing suffering is not something one wishes for, neither for oneself, nor for loved ones, nor for strangers, nor even for those who may have caused us harm. This last point may certainly lead to another debate, but a…

    Everyone Inside Their Own Bubble

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, was giving a lesson today at the Great Library of Esperia. Rebuilding the civilization of the Espers would take time and require everyone’s efforts toward a goal understood and embraced by all. That was no small task, was it? Especially if one looked back at the events of the past,…
