The Seven Shapes were reflecting on how things had changed since the end of the Chaos War. “The discovery of the StarDust was truly the key to understanding ourselves,” thought Vati. “Yes, and Atma, the Shape of Balance, was also a missing element in being able to create One Daily Tale,” said Shala. “In order…

Is this reality truly understood? When we look at how the governments of the richest countries behave, it doesn’t seem so. A consensus on climate change should be obvious. “Because others don’t act, why should we? We’ll just lose the economic war.” Well, since we — unfortunately? — share the same boat, and it’s the…

We now understand that humans are drawn to stories. Long before the digital era—or even before writing—knowledge was passed down through generations by stories told aloud. Whenever someone tells a story, it is no longer reality but a fiction that carries beliefs within it. The natural fear of danger within our species makes us adopt…

If every individual on this Earth is unique, then to us, our mother is even more unique. A natural bond is formed during pregnancy and through breastfeeding, a period when, as newborns, we are entirely dependent on our parents’ care and love. How we feel about our parents will naturally change with time and circumstances.…

It is now widely accepted that climate change is happening—and that its consequences are rather bleak. On top of that, we also understand that the fuels causing this crisis are limited, as are all resources on our shared planet, Earth. Meanwhile, the entire system remains rooted in a growth-oriented economy that fails to take into…

What we come to see as “good” values and the proper behaviors to follow are learned throughout our lives. As children, we naturally mimic the actions and thoughts we observe — through the words and gestures of our parents, siblings, teachers, or friends we play with. When we are still very young, we hold no…

The “modern world” now offers countless movies to watch, games to play, and things to own. Meanwhile, the physical realities of the world we live in have become invisible to us, in a society where “the sky is the limit” is the mantra of leading nations. Unfortunately, our planet Earth does have limits—limits we’ve come…

When writing One Daily Tale, the Seven Shapes thought about how best to deliver the message. And because they believed they had found the key to harmony, they felt a responsibility to share it with every Esper. This eventually gave birth to the peaceful world of Esperia! Tales and stories had always been the way…

When the StarDust was revealed to the Espers and the Five Elements, it took some time to understand how it worked and what needed to be done in order to nurture it. With the help of Shala, the Shape of Time, and the appearance of Atma, the Shape of Balance, it became clear to the…

When the 7 Shapes first began working on their project, they thought about how to make the best use of the StarDust. Because Shala was there, they understood that setting a daily time limit was essential to consider. They also all agreed that, for habits to be “realistically doable,” they needed to be simple and…
