The Power of Action

Of all the courses in Esperia, Faya’s lessons on how to build willpower were certainly among the most energetic.

As expected from the Shape of Fire!

To inspire the young listeners in her course, she created a lesson called “The Power of Action.”

She would say:
“When you take action toward a goal, you position your StarDust to receive more Aether related to that goal.”

“You begin to notice things that will help you far more easily than if you weren’t actively doing anything.”

“This is the magic of action! The more you act, the more Aether you process—and the more powerful your Fire spells become.”

“But of course, as always, never forget that I’m not the only Shape, and that we cannot act without thinking or without truly listening to ourselves.”

“This is the magic of the 7 Shapes—and of One Daily Tale.”

    Resources

    On Esperia, the laws of physics were very different from those we know on Earth. This allowed the Espers to use magical powers. But they were also deeply aware of the land they lived in, and the natural presence of the 7 Shapes always reminded them that they needed to live in balance with the

    A Life Ticket

    For any human being reading these lines, you have been given a life ticket—one you couldn’t refuse. You own this ticket, and you alone. How you choose to use it is entirely up to you. The kind of ticket you received may seem quite random: you may have been born into a wealthy family in

    Failures

    There is a certain irony in how the human brain works: for us to learn and grow, we also need to fail personally. Babies do it naturally when trying to grab objects, sit up, or learn how to walk: they try, fail, try again, fail again… When this was understood by the Espers on Esperia,

    Climbing

    Cha Cha liked studying human civilization and the various inventions humans had created—especially sports. One of them in particular captured his attention: climbing. He saw in it a philosophy of life: “You get to battle with yourself. You fail a lot, but try again a lot, and eventually succeed—or not. Sometimes what you lack is

    Your Doors

    We can be taught many things. But others can only bring us to the doors—we must open them with our own hands. Opening those doors will be up to you. And you alone. Some doors are harder to open. Others you won’t even know exist—until you meet new people or live new experiences. Some doors

    Empathy

    What truly defines us as humans? What sets us apart from other species? Not our physical strength, nor our intelligence. It is our social abilities—our capacity to form groups of many individuals—that have led the human species to eventually dominate the Earth. Empathy is our ability to understand and share the feelings of another. It

    Language

    One of the most underrated “skills” to learn is language. For those lucky enough to have had access to education, the use of language in all its forms—be it speaking, reading, or writing—may seem obvious and trivial. But it isn’t trivial at all. Mastering a language is one of the key skills to develop. Why?

    Natural Resources

    In just a few hundred years, the shape of the Earth has drastically changed—mostly due to the use of fossil fuels that created the “world of abundance” we live in today. While this allowed some countries to thrive on this new “black gold,” when we realize that this resource is, first, not infinite, and second,
