The Fundamentals

Kenko, the Shape of Health and Element of Earth, wasn’t the flashiest of all the Shapes, but she was always considered the one you could truly rely on.

She was the living example that working on the fundamentals daily bears fruit, and that these basics become the foundation for everything else. Without good health, everything becomes a burden.

While some Espers were drawn to the brilliance of Eklea or the style of Faya, One Daily Tale always emphasized the importance of building with Kenko the pillars of a healthy life.

And the basics are simple! It’s just a matter of creating good habits!

A good night’s sleep.

Eating well.

Exercising daily.

These fundamentals were highly respected throughout Esperia, forming the first essential step toward creating a harmonious society.

Why? Because they built the foundation on which StarDust could eventually form.

    The use of magic by the Espers transformed their world in a radical way. Not only had it forever changed the ecosystem of their planet, but it had also greatly complicated their society. For although magic had allowed such systems to be created, for an Esper, on an individual scale, their senses and the reach

    The meeting between Cha Cha, our platypus friend, and Guruko, a young Esper from the Valley of the Wind, was the spark that revealed the compassion buried within him. Guruko was pure and innocent, which gave her a charming beauty. This contrasted with Cha Cha, who had little by little lost sight of that light,

    In today’s lesson, Vati, the Forme of Wisdom, wanted to remind something essential. What had made the strength of the Espers until now was neither magic, nor their intelligence, nor their physical strength. What had made the Espers capable of such feats was communication and mutual help. Some new technologies had made dialogue between different

    The representative color of Atma, the Shape of Balance, was a deep blue reminiscent of the oceans. The ebb and flow of its waves, its highs and lows, formed an image now associated with balance. Far from being a straight line, there are good and bad sides to everything: a situation, a new technology, life

    If there was one thing the Espers were not made for, it was to feel the impermanence of time. Whether it concerned the past or the future, everything that is not the present or close to it quickly becomes abstract, taking shape through stories. These stories are then shaped by their experience, lived or learned,

    For Esperia, this was the discovery of the StarDust, revealed to all at the end of the Chaos War, which had been the trigger for the Espers to finally act in concert. Indeed, for years, despite technological progress and even learning to use magic, which had made many tedious tasks child’s play, the inertia of

    The Espers were not the only creatures on their planet endowed with consciousness; animals or even plants had evolved to develop it as well. Vingel was a creature that resembled a small dog. After the loss of his mother, he had fallen into despair, and had not realized that he had gradually lost the ability

    If some saw the rigor of a daily training of the mind as a limitation to their freedom, Kenko, the Shape of Health, often reminded them that good health was not only physical, but also in the mind. Thus, to rebuild Esperia on healthier foundations, it was also necessary to rethink the foundations of a
