The Great Library of Esperia

In Esperia, one of the most respected places was the Great Library.

Not only was it filled with every kind of book—written by the Shapes themselves and by Espers on topics like nature or the peculiar laws of physics in their Universe, which allowed the arts of magic—but it was also a place to discuss new theories, inventions, and ways of thinking!

The library was beautifully integrated into the surrounding landscape, and the books, written through magic, could be read by any kind of Esper. The words would automatically transform into the reader’s primary element!

Vati was particularly proud of this place, where elder Espers taught the younger ones.

Together with the other Shapes, she would often reflect and try to write, as clearly as they could, the principles that lay at the heart of harmony.

This book was later known on Earth as One Daily Tale…

    In All Simplicity

    It is very easy and natural to believe that we are the center of the Earth. And in a society increasingly concerned with individual freedoms, this way of thinking can only spread. Yet it is just as easy to take even a few minutes to reflect on the situation as a whole. By zooming out,…

    Strength in Unity

    The Seven Shapes had become the symbol that there is strength in unity.

    Content with the Essentials

    Swept up in the whirlwind of everyday life, it is easy to lose sight of what is so often right before our eyes. Magic had made the lives of many Espers far more comfortable than those of even the most powerful kings of times past. But did that mean that all Espers were now happier…

    Perceiving Problems

    Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had an important responsibility: she was, for the Espers around the world, the symbol of a new society founded on new foundations. As the Shape of Wisdom, one of her roles was to help the Espers perceive the existing problems. Why? Quite simply because we can only begin trying to…

    Population Regulation

    The Espers were at the top of the food chain. And since the use of magic, they had also acquired the means to raze mountains, devastate forests, and drain lakes.

    Time to Reflect

    It had become one of the pillars of the new Esperia. Shala, the Shape of Time, allowed Espers around the world to remember the importance of taking time to reflect. Time that, for many, had been devoted to entertainment before the Chaos War. They absolutely had to kill time. The use of magic had made…

    Discussing Serious Subjects

    The discovery of the StarDust throughout the world had made one thing possible for the first time: discussing serious subjects had finally become possible. The civilization of the Espers, until then bound by taboos, such as attitudes toward death, old age, and illness, had become aware of the need to confront social problems, without which…

    A Civilization Finally Mature

    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…
