Time is Limited for Us

In Esperia, even the most powerful and advanced magics have never been able to create immortality for the Espers.

But they did not believe that their limited time was without meaning!

On the contrary, they understood well that it was because their lives had an end that it was worth doing their best for the world they had learned to love since childhood, and for all the marvelous creatures that lived in Esperia.

Guided by the 7 Shapes, it was natural for them to embrace their StarDust and work on it daily: a single day is also limited in time. Because of the constant flow of time, any day not dedicated to the StarDust was a missed opportunity to make it shine brighter.

Shala, the Shape of Time, was there to remind them that in order to maintain their StarDust in the healthiest way, they had to balance their time with all the teachings of the Elemental Shapes: Wisdom, Empathy, Awareness, Health, and Willpower.

    The excessive development of the Espers’ civilization through the use of magic had also made it possible to understand its consequences for the entire planet. Just as the Espers learn from their mistakes, perhaps irony had it that they would understand, decades later, the true gravity of their past actions. Magic had given them the…

    Esperia was rebuilding itself slowly but surely, upon foundations that now seemed right in everyone’s eyes. The StarDust and its existence had become widely accepted, and the initiatory journey that each Esper had to undertake to recover their own artifacts had become part of everyday life, far more quickly than the Seven Shapes had ever…

    On Esperia, the quest to recover the Seven Artifacts was now considered the essential foundation for entering adult life. Indeed, this adventure made it possible to learn about the world by crossing the lands of the five elements, and to better understand the sometimes abstract notions of time and balance. But above all, it also…

    No one, whoever they were, could change the face of the world alone. The Seven Shapes understood this well, and although they had now become the symbol of Esperia’s renewal, they also knew that the efforts would have to be made by everyone. And for that, first and foremost, it was important to accept one’s…

    As a civilization that considers itself advanced, it would seem obvious that the connection between nature, its benefits, and the fundamental need to sustain ourselves through the food it provides should be something everyone understands. The society of the Espers before the Chaos War, which had basked in luxury and consumption made possible through the…

    Gathering the seven artifacts was a quest that was also, perhaps above all, an adventure that allowed them to learn to better understand themselves. Who has never been surprised to hear their own voice, or to see themselves move and speak? So many small moments that allow us to become a little more aware of…

    The Chaos War had clearly shown that the cycle of wars would never end as long as people’s mindsets did not evolve. And the discovery of magic, which had made the civilization of the Espers more prosperous, had in no way changed the way they saw things. On the contrary, society was becoming increasingly individualistic…

    If the use of magic had brought many benefits to the daily lives of the Espers, the world before the Chaos War had changed enormously, for better and for worse. No one could have imagined how much society would change thanks to the new technologies made possible by magic. The population had exploded, as had…
