“With ‘if,’ one could remake the world. But with ‘if,’ and by putting those ideas into practice, it becomes a reality.”
It was with these words that a conference began in the Will section of the Great Library of Esperia.
Faya, the Shape of Will, led the discussion and wanted to draw attention to the need to act in addition to having ideas.
“Esperia was able to change thanks to putting into practice the principles presented in One Daily Tale,” she continued.
“The discovery of the StarDust was a true revelation for everyone. Just like the understanding that it requires the combination of the Five elements in balance.”
Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, continued.
“Yes, and we now also know that it is unique to each person and essential for understanding oneself better, because it reveals our inner Shadow, often buried within us if we do not nourish our StarDust.”
Putting into practice the principles of One Daily Tale had allowed Esperia to find a harmony never seen before. But the Seven Shapes clearly understood that this peace was fragile and requires the daily efforts of everyone.
And that is why One Daily Tale came into being.

The Eternal Flame
The end of the Chaos War and the awakening of the Elemental Shapes brought forth the creation of the Five Legendary Elemental Artifacts.

Before our Eyes
Eklea, the Shape of Awareness and Element of Lightning, always reminded her students that understanding simple facts was the beginning of mastering more complicated concepts. “We can only see what is before our eyes.” The young Espers laughed at such an obvious statement. Eklea smiled and added: “When we don’t see things or people for

My Heart Will Go On
Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, understood more than anyone else the power of sound and music to soothe minds. It was soon discovered that music held a mysterious ability: to create a harmonious resonance among all the StarDusts who heard the same song. Gurumin naturally loved to hum sweet melodies which, as the Element of

The StarDust and the Shadow
Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, stumbled upon the discovery of not only the StarDust, but also the Shadow. Every living creature possessed a Shadow that could be revealed only when its own StarDust was finally unlocked. Plants and animals held a natural balance between their StarDust and Shadow, but the Espers did not. This became

Unstable Balance
For many systems, there exists both a stable and an unstable balance.A stable balance will return to its original state even if some conditions change.An unstable one will not.

To Wipe the Slate Clean
This concept was understood to be crucial for the development of harmony in Esperia. Shala, in particular, was the initiator of this, for she knew that if time was not taken to reflect on the past and to move forward, grudges and resentments would always linger in the Shadow of every Esper— even in the

Darkness and Starlight
Cha Cha, our beloved platypus, gazed at the cloudless sky, illuminated by countless stars that made him reflect on how small his own existence was compared to the vastness of the universe. He thought about how the discovery of StarDust in Esperia was also the discovery of the Shadow. “If there is no light, we
