The Shape of Awareness: Eklea

In ancient times, there was a land named Esperia,
where harmony prevailed, thanks to the presence of the 7 Shapes.

Eklea was the embodiment of awareness.
Like a flash of lightning, her color was bright yellow, and her mind sparkled with curiosity.
She often leapt from one idea to another, for curiosity was the very core of her being.

Awareness is what allows us to live fully —
to notice the little joys of each day and feel alive in every moment.

Though her thoughts danced quickly from place to place,
Eklea also understood the importance of slowing down.
She cherished quiet moments of meditation,
finding calm by focusing gently on her breath.

Like all the Shapes, Eklea needed the others to truly shine.
She loved exchanging ideas with Vati,
who always brought new concepts to explore.
And she often shared her latest discoveries with Gurumin,
who listened with patience and kindness.

But after the Eclipse, the dark magic known as Ruin
not only erased Eklea’s name from memory,
but also sealed the very spark of her powers.
While the others were merely forgotten,
Eklea’s light was locked away—
hidden deep within a mysterious cave,
made unreachable by the erosion of the earth over countless ages.
