Welcome to Esperia — A World of Harmony and Magic
In Esperia, magical creatures called Espers nurture the StarDust, a glowing energy that lives within all.
The Seven Shapes guide this world, bringing balance, wisdom, and care to every being.
Each day, One Daily Tale shares a story from their magical tome—let it inspire your StarDust to shine brighter.
Step into today’s story and let the magic unfold…

If there is one thing that is difficult for the Espers to do, it is to properly take into consideration everything that is not visible to their eyes: the future rather than the present moment, the system as a whole rather than their personal situation, the general Shadow of their entire civilization…
And mental health may perhaps be connected to this general Shadow.
If each Esper is part of society as a whole, the Shadow of that society, resulting from billions of individuals, can hardly be perfectly aligned with each individual.
Disparities exist and can deteriorate an individual’s mental health.
Understanding the direction society is taking, while seeing it turn a deaf ear to calls concerning the problems of climate change or inequalities throughout the world, is certainly a source of inner conflict.
Young people are particularly sensitive to the contradictions of this general Shadow and can therefore become vulnerable to unstable mental health.
Good health, both physical and mental, is nevertheless essential to illuminate the element of Earth with its StarDust.

The Aether Seed
If all five artifacts of each element had their own properties and crucial importance, the artifact of the Earth element could perhaps be considered the most indispensable for the renewal of the planet Esperia. Called “the Aether Seed,” this artifact gave its possessor the ability to produce Aether when they developed their Earth element! Nevertheless,…

The Lightning Spark
The artifact of the element of lightning was called the Lightning Spark. Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, regularly reminded the Espers around the world of the importance of developing their element of lightning. A society based on respect for others and the environment in which they all lived required a collective awareness centered around a…

The Wind Artifact
The legendary artifact of the Wind element, discovered at the end of the War of Chaos, was called the Wind Mirror. Just like the other artifacts, anyone could retrieve it, and the new Esperia even encouraged all Espers to retrieve the artifacts of the five elements, on an initiatory journey that would allow them to…

The Prism of Wisdom
The end of the War of Chaos had revealed not only the StarDust, but also the artifacts of each element. For water, it was the Prism of Wisdom. Every Esper who developed their StarDust in their water element could acquire this artifact, which helped them see, through a prism of tolerance and humility, not only…

Making Moderation Appealing
For the Seven Shapes, this was certainly one of the most daunting challenges. How could they make moderation appealing when the Shadow of the Espers so often drove them to act against it? First of all, the presence of Atma, the Shape of Balance, was, just as with the other Shapes and their respective elements,…

Start Acting for the Future Today
From then on, with Shala, the Shape of Time, placing greater emphasis on it, thinking about the future had become a normal part of life for the Espers since the end of the War of Chaos. The Espers were not naturally creatures who placed the future first. On the contrary, their Shadow urged them more…

A Glimmer of Hope
Now that Esperia had been rebuilt on new foundations, which seemed obvious to have been put in place after careful reflection, thinking back to the world as it had been just before the War of Chaos seemed unreal. “How could we possibly have behaved like that?” wondered a young Esper, incredulous as he studied the…

A Collective Responsibility
Whether they wanted it or not, every new Esper brought into the world was part of a whole: a family, a clan, an elemental region, the civilization of the Espers as a whole… Until very recently, it had been inconceivable for Espers of different elements to even attempt to communicate with one another. Simply because…
