One thing was certain.
The behavioral instincts linked to the need to meet one’s basic needs were deeply rooted.
The use of magic on Esperia had allowed the wealthiest to overcome those necessities, leaving room for a way around those instincts.
We want more. Always more. No longer out of necessity or precaution. But often out of pure vanity or selfishness, whether conscious or not.
But the presence of Atma had helped the Espers understand that developing one’s StarDust in balance made it possible to become aware of this.
That awareness then allows one to realize that what drives us to always want more can be controlled.
Of course, learning to control oneself when the world constantly dazzles us with promises and wonders is not easy for everyone.
Promoting nobler values was one of the pillars of a fairer and more harmonious world for all.
But the question remained the same:
“Who truly wants such a world when they can enjoy more without worrying about others…?”

Dilemma Between Rights and Ethics
For the Seven Shapes, trying at last to build a society that was fair for everyone was no simple task.

Freed from the Material World
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. The intensive use of magic had indeed forever destabilized the climate, and Aether, the life source of the planet, had reached a critical threshold and was close to…

A Difficult Future
Vingel, 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…

Healthy Growth
The discovery of the StarDust had led the Espers to take a closer interest in how to develop it. 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…

Losing Sight of What Matters Most
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…

On Equal Terms
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…

Without Discrimination
Can we truly speak of equality of opportunity at birth when the place and conditions in which one is born vary greatly from one region of the planet to another? This was the reflection upon which Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had been focusing. The end of the War of Chaos had revealed that the…
