To Light the Fuse

When the Chaos War ended, a moment of pure stillness was felt by all the Espers who had fought endlessly for years upon years.

It must be considered not only from the perspective of an individual, for whom a balanced diet and regular physical exercise are important, but also from the perspective of the group and society, as mental health is often closely connected there.

These waves come and go, sometimes gently, sometimes more vigorously, yet always in this back-and-forth motion that creates a balance. It was this image that had become present in the minds of the Espers
