One Daily Tale

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.

    For the Seven Shapes, trying at last to build a society that was fair for everyone was no simple task. Whether it was the inertia of a system established over centuries, or the inertia of the attitudes of the individuals who composed it, sometimes reluctant toward changes that came too suddenly, they had to balance…

    Like clouds drifting peacefully across the sky, or nature itself, free and carefree, a way of life distant from the material world was increasingly favored on Esperia.

    Vangel, our little dog friend of the Fire element, gazed deeply into the future that The Seven Shapes were trying to create through One Daily Tale. “This is a task that seems so difficult…” he thought. And for good reason, the understanding of the world, following the end of the War of Chaos, had highlighted…

One thing was clear in any case: it already shone extremely brightly, naturally, during pregnancy, but also throughout childhood. The Seven Shapes had therefore thought it necessary to create a society that promotes the healthy growth…

    Simba, our little monkey friend, had roamed across the lands of the different elements. He had noticed one thing: while the elements differ on paper, the behaviors of the Espers were often the same, regardless of the element. He could see carefree young Espers, parents worried by the news of the day, disparities between the…

    Cha Cha, our dear little platypus friend, was discussing one of his theories with Guruko. “When you think about a relationship on equal terms, we don’t usually think about comparing individuals from different countries. We often remain focused on a given country, often the one of our birth.” he thought. “Isn’t that normal? Many people…
