In their desire to create a fairer society for everyone, and one finally in harmony with the nature on which they depended, the Seven Shapes had, without really intending to, laid the first stones of a new civilization. The personal development of each Esper, based on the principles of the StarDust, had led each of…

Faya, the Shape of Willpower and a great element of Fire, had chosen this title to lead a debate about taking responsibility and the choices each Esper had to make regarding it. Even though the end of the Chaos War had brought a brief moment of communion for all, with the StarDust appearing before everyone’s…

Ever since the Espers had developed their ability to use magic, many believed that they had finally succeeded in creating what was known as a modern society. When it came to technology, it was true that there was nothing comparable between the world made possible by magic and the world of the past. But one…

The primary instincts of the Esper species pushed them to act naturally for their individual survival before anything else. Even though the Espers were now capable of using magic and had developed a civilization that, from the outside, had little left in common with the time when they had been nomadic in search of food,…

At what moment do we truly become adults? Is it simply a question of age? Of experience? Isn’t being an adult, in the end, the awareness of our own responsibility toward others, and in particular toward future generations?

Vangel, our little dog from the Land of Fire, was torn between the hope that what he was undertaking could truly change things, and the fear that the inertia of the system might simply be too strong. But he was convinced of one thing: if those who think do not act, then nothing will change…

The Seven Shapes had clearly understood that, in order to rebuild Esperia, everyone’s efforts would be necessary, whatever their element. The period preceding the War of Chaos had developed, throughout all the elemental lands, the understandable but fruitless feeling that the fault always lay with others and that making efforts oneself only meant putting oneself…

No one, whoever they were, could change the face of the world alone. The Seven Shapes understood this well, and although they had now become the symbol of Esperia’s renewal, they also knew that the efforts would have to be made by everyone. And for that, first and foremost, it was important to accept one’s…

The Eternal Flame. That was the name given to the Fire artifact, which symbolized the unique bond between all the Espers. The will to act, not only for oneself, but also for others and for the world in which they lived, and whose resources and natural wealth they used. A will that could take many…
