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…
The StarDust revealed at the end of the Chaos War became an unexpected catalyst for the Espers.
It was an extraordinary opportunity to rebuild an entire system while finally taking into account the physical reality of the world in which they all lived: the one and only planet they all shared…

Natural Resources
In just a few hundred years, the shape of the Earth has drastically changed—mostly due to the use of fossil fuels that created the “world of abundance” we live in today. While this allowed some countries to thrive on this new “black gold,” when we realize that this resource is, first, not infinite, and second,…

Habits
While the details of how our brain functions are still a mystery, we now understand that, of the multitude of choices we make daily, most are made unconsciously, based on our own habits. We could truly say that human beings are creatures of habit! Making better choices in our daily lives means building better habits…

The “Modern World”
“As long as humans don’t realize their own nature, new technologies won’t solve any real issues.” In the last two centuries, the modern world has given rise to modern civilization: globalization, overconsumption, a world that seems boundless and infinite—a reflection of the most powerful country in the world. But when we understand that the resources…

Responsibility
In Esperia, because the 7 Shapes were at the center of how the land had developed, every single Esper was taught the importance of responsibility, and how to contribute to Esperia as a whole when trying new things. This became especially true as the Espers grew their magical powers—the wiser they had to become, and…

Sleep is OP!
Just like humans somehow forget about their brain—because they can’t see it—they also forget how much their sleep impacts their daily lives… Sleep might be the most overpowered tool that enhances every aspect of one’s life: from learning to physical development, better mood, and more energy. The list is endless! When you think about it,…

Scales
Of all the 7 Shapes, Eklea was the most difficult to grasp and understand. This is why all the Espers needed to take time, every single day, to remind themselves how tiny they were in the vastness of the multiple universes they lived in—but also how important they were to one another, and to the…

Smile!
Guruko and Cha Cha were reading a part of the book One Daily Tale, about a powerful tool that every Esper on Esperia knew about. It was a smile! When they read this, they both looked at each other, wondering what it truly meant… “A smile can lift the day of anyone who sees it.…

The Great Library of Esperia
In Esperia, one of the most respected places was the Great Library. Not only was it filled with every kind of book—written by the Shapes themselves and by Espers on topics like nature or the peculiar laws of physics in their Universe, which allowed the arts of magic—but it was also a place to discuss…
