The Seeds of a Just World

When the Seven Shapes first explained the principles of One Daily Tale, a silence could be heard throughout the entire world.

It was so simple that it left many of them perplexed, as they had expected far-fetched theories, unreasonable efforts, or even a return to the Stone Age.

There was nothing of the sort.

It was simply a matter of planting within each of them the seeds of a just world.

You know these seeds too, now.

The seeds that allow the StarDust present within each of the Espers to develop.

All of them had to be sown and gently cared for, day after day.

With time, these seeds would become the buds of a just world, where responsibilities would intertwine with dialogue between peoples, whatever their element, and where trust, which had allowed civilization to grow in the first place, would regain its rightful place.

Planting the seeds of a just world was then everyone’s responsibility and no one’s at the same time, with each person carrying, in their own way, their contribution to the world.

A sense of belonging to a society that championed equality was then taking shape.

The loneliness so often felt by many of the Espers would then become nothing more than a distant memory…

All it took was to take that first step.

Plant the seeds of a just world in your secret garden.

    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.

    Returning to the Basics

    The civilization of the Espers before the Chaos War had gradually drifted away from its foundations. It was becoming increasingly difficult for them to give importance to their basic physiological needs, because these needs were no longer right in front of them. For many, the days when searching for food took up most of the…

    Universal Consciousness

    How can we not naturally think that we are at the center of the world when we see the world only through our own eyes? This was the starting point of a reflection by Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, concerning a paradox of Esper civilization: on an individual scale, an act may seem entirely rational.…

    If Innocence Were Queen

    Observing how the civilization of the Espers behaved before the Chaos War, one might believe that they were all afflicted by a destructive madness, or were desperately trying to get the better of others at their expense.

    Values at the Heart of the System

    The world before the Chaos War was quite a bewildering spectacle. On the one hand, the use of magic had given the Espers technologies that allowed them to satisfy their thirst for individuality and freedom, which they championed under the banner of modernity. But on the other hand, the system in which they lived had…

    Reconnecting with Strong Bonds to What Is Essential

    The civilization of the Espers had gradually moved away from what was nevertheless necessary to meet their natural physiological needs. Being able to feed themselves had become an ordinary act, with no apparent connection to nature, its resources, or the ecosystem of which they were nevertheless a part. Why was it important, in the eyes…

    Letting Go Takes Time

    Caught up in their own emotions, who has never felt resentment toward someone else, only to later forget even the original reason for the conflict? The new Esperia that the Seven Shapes were trying to rebuild was now founded on principles shared by everyone. Since Shala, the Shape of Time, had become a symbol that…
