The Importance of a Healthy Routine

The task of rebuilding Esperia on solid foundations was enormous. So many things had to be reconsidered while trying to preserve, as much as possible, the quality of life that magic had made possible, while also limiting its use…

A true challenge that required everyone’s active participation.

The Seven Shapes therefore decided to emphasize the importance of a healthy routine for the Espers all around the world.

Indeed, the discovery of the StarDust was the key that opened the door to a world finally living in harmony with nature, at peace among the five elements, and also at peace within oneself.

Shala, the Shape of Time, had become the symbol that reminded the Espers each day to cultivate their StarDust.

Each Esper was therefore encouraged to know themselves better and to establish a healthy routine that suited them.

By gradually adjusting their routine, each Esper became able to nourish their own StarDust and finally discover the Shadow that resided deep within them.

For the Seven Shapes, building a dialogue with one’s own Shadow was essential, and the true foundation of a genuinely modern civilization.

Not through technology.

But through shared values, freely embraced by everyone.

For to know oneself is to know one’s Shadow, and to learn to accept the Shadow of others as well.

    I Want to Know

    Just as being able to say “I don’t know” is a sign of wisdom, wanting to know—rather than passively accepting things as truth—is yet another mark of it. “It is so easy to accept facts as they are, without trying to understand whether they are true or the reasons behind them,” taught Vati, the Shape…

    Reflections on how to build a world with harmony at its center led the Seven Shapes to place balance at the heart of the matter.

    A Decisive Time

    Shala and Vati discussed extensively the development of StarDust throughout the lifetime of an Esper. One of their conclusions was that even before the birth of a new Esper, the time spent in the mother’s womb had already begun to shape what its future StarDust would eventually become. Broadly speaking, childhood is the “decisive time.”…

    Beliefs

    We now understand that humans are drawn to stories. Long before the digital era—or even before writing—knowledge was passed down through generations by stories told aloud. Whenever someone tells a story, it is no longer reality but a fiction that carries beliefs within it. The natural fear of danger within our species makes us adopt…

    A Common Resonance

    For this lesson, which was considered one of the most difficult, Faya put a great deal of effort into teaching the Espers about resonance. Though Faya preferred to put things into practice, this lesson was particularly abstract, which is why she asked the other Shapes to help her. “The most difficult part about resonance,” said…

    Kenko and Gurumin worked together on this course about health and how to promote it, so that even the reluctant Espers would try their best. “I’m free to do as I like!” said a young Esper who didn’t enjoy listening to advice. “Yes, of course you are,” said Gurumin gently. “But why can’t I skip…
