The Color of Your Flame

Faya, the Shape of Willpower and Element of Fire, taught a lesson about the flame inside each of the Espers.

“You each carry within you a fire that gives you the strength to face adversity and helps you accomplish things you never thought you could.”

“Fire is only one of the elements, but when combined with the others, and kept in balance, it eventually reveals the StarDust within you as well.”

“Everyone is different and has unique traits, and these show through the color of your flame! It also shifts with your mood, and of course, with how much you have developed your other elements.”

“No color is better or worse than another, and it changes over time and through your experiences.”

“The fire we hold inside can also help guide the younger ones.”

“That is our responsibility—whatever the color of our flame.”
