It was a question that often came up in the debates at the Great Library of Esperia, which, since the end of the Chaos War, had served Espers from all over the world as a place to exchange ideas, discuss, and try to find compromises on difficult issues.
The Chaos War had indeed brought to everyone’s attention problems that had already existed for decades, but had been concealed by the illusion of a civilization ever more focused on growth and abundance.
The new fashionable gadgets, made possible in particular by the use of magic, which had developed at a breathtaking pace throughout Esperia, were everywhere, consuming ever more resources for a usefulness that was, quite rightly, being called into question.
With physical constraints now at the forefront of every Esper’s mind, it was, indeed, easier to ask the right questions.
And therefore to finally do what should have been done for years, even centuries.
To discuss how to solve truly complex problems, bringing together many different fields of expertise…
And also, and perhaps most importantly, problems that can only be solved through everyone’s efforts, by helping one another rather than distrusting each other…

Advantages and Disadvantages

On television, it is the striking messages of advertisements…

Together in Unity
Today, let us take an interest in Cha Cha, our dear platypus friend who dreamed that one day he could make a living from his writing, and above all, that his message would be understood and shared across the world.

Fighting Against an Unfavorable Situation
The Espers of the fire element had built a reputation for always fighting, even in the most unfavorable situations. They had naturally understood that this was how their fire element grew.

Full of enthusiasm and energy
The question of health is not simple. 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.

Earth Day
Guruko and her platypus companion were once again looking, through their magical mirror, at what was happening on a mysterious planet from another universe than their own. This planet was covered with water, which gave it its blue color when seen from space. And today, its inhabitants had decided that it was Earth Day, the…

Joyful and open-minded
Are these qualities not those of children? Full of life, joy, and curiosity, they ask questions that many adults have stopped asking. The Espers of the Wind element were certainly the closest to this state of mind. Even as adults, they had often kept their childlike hearts, showing a radiant, authentic, and sincere smile. To…

Equally and Fairly
Faced with the immense task that the reconstruction of Esperia represented, the need to rethink the world as a whole had finally reached the center of discussions. “We now finally understand that we share one single planet,” began Vati, the Shape of Wisdom. “We also understand that the five elements, as different as they may…
