With an open mind

Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy, was appreciated by all the Espers.
In every situation, she would listen openly or make a calm judgment. Her daily attitude toward anyone she met was a reflection of her pure heart.

“As much as possible, I try my best to keep an open mind,” she would say.

“It is not easy every day, but we can all work on it, little by little, day by day.”

Her gentle voice was full of trust, and she was the living symbol that empathy and compassion were essential pillars of a world of peace and harmony.

“There will be times when you forget about trying to be open. This is when you could try reminding yourself of Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, and my good friend.”

“Of course, the more people who keep an open mind, the easier it becomes. The discovery of how the StarDust within each of us works was a gift for Esperia, because it became a common ground for all the Espers.”

“Let’s try our best to keep an open mind as much as we can!”

    Sowing the Seeds of Awareness

    Each Esper saw the world in a different way. But the reality of the physical world in which they all lived was, indeed, shared by all. In this context, some Espers were more aware of their vision of the world and of how closely it reflected reality. Children, who were born without any knowledge, could…

But sometimes, or even…

    Reflecting on a Global Education

    Before the Chaos War, Esperia had never been so divided over matters that, nevertheless, had previously been understood among the five elemental lands. Tensions were rising, trust was at its lowest, between the elements, but also within some of the lands themselves. Inequalities continued to grow between the winners of an exacerbated globalization and those…

    What Do We Really Need?

    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…

    Investing Time Every Day

    The civilization of the Espers before the Chaos War had gradually become accustomed to having everything done almost instantly. Waiting was becoming unbearable for many of them, and a long-term perspective seemed like nothing more than a vague memory of the past. Now that the StarDust was better understood, however, it seemed obvious that investing…
