Strength in Unity

The Seven Shapes had become the symbol that there is strength in unity.

Each elemental land was represented, and while each element had its strengths and weaknesses, the Espers had understood that the union of the elements could create a force far greater than all of them separately.

On an individual level, this developed the StarDust.

On a global level, this made true harmony with the ecosystem possible.

The global scale, which, until before the war, had existed only to serve the economy of a system that had never tried to create a global charter, with the richest helping the poorest.

This had often been seen on the scale of a land, where civil wars had emerged when the gap between the rich and the poor grew greater and greater, and when unity among the populations began to crack.

Just as children need help to develop, lands that had not necessarily had the same opportunities, simply because of their position on the planet, sometimes also needed the empathy of more fortunate lands.

A land with access to an enormous amount of magic had done nothing to deserve it. It was simply the planet that had created these deposits of magic over millions of years, which had later been discovered by the Espers…

On a planet with limited resources, and with enough Espers to have an impact on the ecosystem of the entire planet, it was necessary for everyone to unite their strengths and think about the future of everyone.

The question was simple.

What future did they truly want?
