Without Discrimination

Can we truly speak of equality of opportunity at birth when the place and conditions in which one is born vary greatly from one region of the planet to another?

This was the reflection upon which Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, had been focusing.

The end of the War of Chaos had revealed that the five elements were part of a whole.

“Should we not finally begin to think of the world from this macroscopic perspective, no longer on the scale of one’s own element, but on the scale of the planet…” she wondered.

Until then, it had been difficult to imagine a global point of view, for at first, it was only very recently that an understanding of the world as a whole had been established.

“Rather than thinking about how to develop the economy of one’s own element, we should instead ask how to develop the economy for all the Espers of the planet.”

“To do so, we must manage to establish a society where the basic principles would be to treat everyone equally and without discrimination, and to love and care for all in the same way.”

Eklea, the Shape of Consciousness, observed Vati in her deep reflections.
“This will not be simple… So you envision a world where everyone would be aware of this universality.”

Vati looked at Eklea tenderly, smiled at her, and replied:

“But we now also know of the existence of the StarDust, which we all carry within us. Is that not the hope we so deeply needed?”

Eklea smiled back and nodded.

    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.

    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

    On Earth, many, many things have existed in a state of balance—long before the human species began dominating the planet. There was the natural cycle of water: clouds formed from the oceans, turned into rain, and flowed back through rivers to the seas. There was also the natural movement of winds, as warmer air tends

    When was the last time you took a moment just for yourself—not doing anything, just a few minutes of simply being? I know that most of you will reply: “I don’t have time to do that.” Unfortunately, if you don’t have time for yourself, even just a few minutes a day, no one else can

    Cha Cha thought that, theoretically, on Earth, even though the Seven Shapes are unknown to everyone, the human brain might be what a potential StarDust looks like! Feeding and exercising our body indirectly powers our brain, and the better the source of energy—what we eat—the better our brain functions. Learning, of course, but also interacting

    Ever wonder why it feels so frustrating when you’re trying to learn new things? You feel like you’re not making progress, or you’re already forgetting what you just learned? This is exactly what learning looks like! Without this kind of friction when we do new things, our brain would have no reason to change, adapt,

    Since she was little, Guruko liked to run in the hills near the small house where she lived with Grandma Luna. She loved climbing trees, rocks, and feeling the touch of the ground on her feet, as well as the smell of the grass when lying down for a quick break. Cha Cha, even as

    When Guruko was still very young and learning so much from Grandma Luna—about how the Espers lived, and how Esperia was a land of harmony—there was one thing she found hard to understand.It was something a bit like meditation, as humans know it. “The path to grow the seed of Eklea is surely the most
