Toward Balance with Nature

Since the end of the Chaos War, the Espers around the world were finally trying to find a path for their civilization that would lead them toward balance with nature.

This balance had been lost for thousands of years, and had accelerated with each new revolution of their system.

The use of magic had intensified this imbalance to such an extent that it led to the Chaos War.

The need for profound change in the system, and in each individual, was now understood by everyone, thanks to the revelation of the StarDust to all, which brought the War to an end.

The limits of resources and of the planet, in terms of its capacity to regulate the burden generated by their civilization, were finally being taken into account.

Whatever their land, rich or poor, everyone had to participate.

Each person was responsible for their own impact on the ecosystem, and therefore had to bear the consequences.

The inequalities that had continued to deepen were gradually fading, and global balance could finally take place.

Utopia had become reality.

Esperia was rebuilt.
