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.

Be in shape
Today’s modern world, especially in many wealthy countries, is facing an issue: obesity. We now have many machines that make our lives easier and more effortless. But just as wisdom is gained by reflecting on problems, your body—and how in shape you are—is a reflection of how dedicated you are to yourself and to those…

Innocence
More than anything, what perhaps best characterizes children is their genuine innocence. When gathered together, without the interference of adults, they naturally begin to talk and play with one another—regardless of gender or the color of their skin. Where you’re born and where you live will greatly influence how this innocence transforms over time. What’s…

Thank You

The Basics
As one of the central places in Esperia, the Great Library had many sections, but all of them were interconnected. As much as possible, the Espers tried to remind themselves of the importance of the 7 Shapes. A section called “The Basics” received particular attention from its Elders, as all young Espers had to learn…

Harmony
Harmony may have been the word that best described Esperia—a true utopia where nature, living creatures, and the Espers who populated this world spent their days in mutual respect. With the guidance of the 7 Shapes, and especially Atma, the Shape of Balance, the Espers contributed to sustaining their existence while preserving the land they…

Appeal for the Future
We quickly forget what we don’t see before our eyes. That may be why the history of wars and violence seems to repeat itself again and again. No one can truly understand what happens during wars, during genocides, unless they witness it themselves. Most of those making decisions live in elite spheres, disconnected from the…

Humility
We are all born with different cards in our hands and raised under various conditions. For most of us, we have received a tremendous number of gifts! These may come in the form of being born in a peaceful, wealthy country, or being raised by parents who did their best despite their flaws. It can…

Us (and Them)
Just as the brain needs failure to grow, it also needs to overcome adversity in order to learn. If there is no obstacle, why progress? The twist is that throughout history, this need for obstacles has sometimes taken the form of creating enemies. In many languages, this took the name of “barbarians.” In ancient times,…
