Welcome to Esperia â A World of Harmony and Magic
In the enchanting world of Esperia, the Seven Shapes have united to bring peace and balance to all living beings.
At the heart of this harmony stand two guiding forces:
Shala, the Shape of Time,
and
Atma, the Shape of Balance.
They are joined by the Five Elemental Shapes, each embodying a vital force of nature and spirit:
Vati â Shape of Wisdom, bearer of Water
Gurumin â Shape of Empathy, guardian of Wind
Eklea â Shape of Awareness, spark of Lightning
Kenko â Shape of Health, soul of Earth
Faya â Shape of Willpower, flame of Fire
In this peaceful land, magical creatures known as the Espers nurture a radiant force called StarDustâa warm, glowing energy that lives within. It must be cared for every day to keep its light shining.
Through centuries of reflection, exploration, and love, the Espers have gathered their knowledge and stories into a single, ever-growing magical tome:
One Daily Tale
Let its pages guide you, inspire you, and help your own StarDust glow brighterâday by day.

The Chaos War
Read more: The Chaos WarIt took quite a long time before the Shape of Balance, Atma, and the meaning behind the word âBalanceâ finally became one of the accepted and evident keys to harmony in Esperia. In principle, itâs simple! In a world with limited resources, there is a clear need for restraint among the living beings who share,…

Past, Present and Future
Read more: Past, Present and FutureShala, the Shape of Time, created a lesson about the Past, Present, and Future. âFor ordinary living beings who havenât developed their StarDust yet, it is very difficult to grasp the Scales of Time. Because, in fact, itâs a paradox: itâs not natural to be able to perceive them.â âWe all know we live in…

Nature as a Common Goal
Read more: Nature as a Common GoalUntil the 7 Shapes worked together to create the foundations of One Daily Tale, Esperia wasnât the harmonious land we had described! It took much effort and time for the Espers to finally realize that preserving the land they lived in was the obvious common goal to pursue. Even though the Espers could create magic…

Mental Health
Read more: Mental HealthSimba was a mysterious, monkey-like creature living in Esperia. Though not an Esper, through experience and trial and error, he had succeeded in developing his own version of the StarDust. But something was still missing. He often experienced a roller coaster of emotionsâsometimes feeling very sad when imagining a world without the 7 Shapes, and…

Aether
