The Valley of Winds

There was a place on Esperia called the Valley of Winds. Over the years, the wind had shaped its landscape, forming a breathtaking scenery of soft, warm plains and winding valleys.

Magical creatures could often be seen there, moving peacefully, and simply stepping onto its ground helped any Esper understand more deeply the lessons taught by Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy.

For witnessing the beauty that Nature could create awakened humility and compassion in their hearts.

It was a favorite place for many Espers who longed to connect more with others.
Gurumin often taught lessons in this valley, showing the younger ones this wondrous place, where it seemed possible to converse with the world itself.

The Valley of Winds reminded the Espers that building relationships takes time, but that with empathy and compassion, truly beautiful ones could blossom.

    If the causes leading to this realization were many and varied, the result was undeniable: not all the Espers possessed the same level of consciousness.

The pursuit of eternal youth and immortality had often been the goal of those who already possessed everything and no longer had to worry about anything except slowing their aging at any cost, or even outwitting death itself.

    Before the War of Chaos, the world was covered with vast constructions stretching across much of the planet’s surface and even beneath its ground, illuminated at night by artificial light. Although darkness and shadow had somewhat disappeared from their sight, this had, in turn, allowed each Esper’s own Shadow to grow even stronger. The use…

Centuries upon centuries of conflict, of calling others barbarians, of fearing what they saw as a backward civilization, would not simply disappear from people’s…

    The reconstruction of Esperia after the Chaos War had raised an essential question: how could they finally ensure that such events would never happen again? Until then, the five elements, each under its own sovereignty, had never stopped trying to outdo one another, at the expense of the weakest, the least fortunate, and above all,…
