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.
