Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands.
Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves.
Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those who were losing out.
Yet it was precisely in this difficult context that action was needed.
Because this was the present moment.
Thinking about the long term rather than seeking immediate solutions, which in the end only served to fuel hateful rhetoric and destroy what had taken decades, or even centuries, to build.
Because yes. Destruction is easy and instantaneous, much like the decisions that were being made more and more often, regardless of the land.
Building connections and thinking about the future, on the other hand, require time, trust, and cooperation between peoples.
It was time to reflect on a global education that would place all peoples, regardless of their land of origin, on an equal footing when it came to the values that would be the common denominator for all.

No Longer Being Confused
When Vati became the Shape of Wisdom, she was filled both with a deep sense of humility and with confusion before the gargantuan task that stood before her, as well as before the other Shapes. “We simply have the mission of transforming the world so that it may finally become fair and equal for everyone…”…

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. 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…

Flowers Bloom and Fade
The Chaos War had at least revealed one thing: the fleeting nature of life.The impact of this war on the planet had been unprecedented. For the use of magic consumed the planet’s life source, known as Aether… And magic, while it could create things and improve living conditions, could also be used for far less…

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
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…

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…
