It had been a while since I last updated the website. While I continue to post the daily tales regularly, some of the content in the Ideas section hasn’t been properly updated.

Our latest tales
-
The “Modern World”
Cha Cha, our platypus friend, was thinking about what the “Modern World” had become—and how paradoxical it was. Thanks to new technologies that turned machines into the world’s new servants, life had become easier for some of the richest countries. But this comfort came at the cost of irreversible damage to the environment—damage that was
-
Moderation
Before the end of the Chaos War, the concept of moderation scarcely existed among the Espers. They preferred to spend their time wielding magic and battling one another, unaware of the consequences. The birth of Atma, the Shape of Balance, transformed life in Esperia. The Seven Shapes placed moderation as a core principle in the

Slowing Down
Esperia was built and envisioned so that harmony and peace would be its foundations. Nature and all the creatures living within it created a virtuous circle, and the Espers — the magical beings — finally understood that the restriction on their use of magic served a greater purpose on their interconnected and limited planet.

The realization of the existence of both the StarDust and the Shadow within each of them brought about a profound and lasting change across Esperia. Health now stood at the
-
Collective Consciousness
Eklea was reflecting on how Esperia had radically changed since the end of the Chaos War and the discovery of StarDust. “This created a collective consciousness,” she whispered. Indeed, the different elemental Espers had never thought of Esperia as a whole before this event. She believed that even if a few Espers were aware of

Singing
Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy and Compassion, had a beautiful voice, and for the pleasure of every Esper willing to listen, she loved to hum and sing. As the Element of Wind, her sweet melodies were carried gently through the calm breeze, and anyone who listened to her soft and delicate voice was reminded of
