The Shape of Wisdom : Vati

In ancient times, there was a land called Esperia, where harmony reigned, thanks to the 7 Shapes.

Then came the Eclipse, and the world forgot the existence of the 7 Shapes.

Vati was the Shape of Wisdom, flowing like water. Her hair shimmered with the color of clear springs.
She came to remind us that learning should never stop.
It sparks our curiosity, shapes our thoughts about the world, and helps us form ideas of our own.

Learning shows us that we all share the same planet.
That we belong to one human family, even with our many differences—like gender, race, or beliefs.
Understanding this helps us grow.

But Vati felt her power fading.
She watched with sadness as people began to forget her.

    Sowing the Seeds of Awareness

    Each Esper saw the world in a different way. But the reality of the physical world in which they all lived was, indeed, shared by all. In this context, some Espers were more aware of their vision of the world and of how closely it reflected reality. Children, who were born without any knowledge, could…

    A Simple Speck Among the Stars

    The Espers throughout the world had the unfortunate tendency to think of themselves as the center of the world.

But sometimes, or even…

    Reflecting on a Global Education

    Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands. Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves. Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those…

    What Do We Really Need?

    It was a question that often came up in the debates at the Great Library of Esperia, which, since the end of the Chaos War, had served Espers from all over the world as a place to exchange ideas, discuss, and try to find compromises on difficult issues. The Chaos War had indeed brought to…

    Investing Time Every Day

    The civilization of the Espers before the Chaos War had gradually become accustomed to having everything done almost instantly. Waiting was becoming unbearable for many of them, and a long-term perspective seemed like nothing more than a vague memory of the past. Now that the StarDust was better understood, however, it seemed obvious that investing…

    Perceiving Reality

    The development of the civilization of the Espers, greatly accelerated by the use of magic for decades, had gradually distanced them from reality.

    Choosing Is Difficult

    Faya, the Shape of Willpower and a great element of Fire, had chosen this title to lead a debate about taking responsibility and the choices each Esper had to make regarding it. Even though the end of the Chaos War had brought a brief moment of communion for all, with the StarDust appearing before everyone’s…

  • In All Simplicity

    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,…
