The Future Is Now

Since Atma’s birth, Shala loved spending time with her, for Atma was the perfect embodiment— the Shape of Balance— showing the importance of caring for one’s time.

As the Shape of Time, Shala carried the difficult task of juggling past, present, and future.

She knew it was hard for many to see with a long-term perspective. Yet, since the discovery of the Aether Flow, acting now for future generations had become essential. Until the end of the Chaos War, the Aether pool had been depleted, placing the future at risk.

Restoring nature to its rightful place was a choice that had to be made now, for it takes years to rebuild a coherent environment. Trees and forests need decades to grow— acting now means acting for the future.

The future is now.
