<</nobr>> You move your leg, only able to move them straight ahead. You can not turn, but you are walking forward.
As you walk the space beneath you begins to become something. Something new, something yours.

[[What would moving Faster do?->Trot]]
<<set $lookT = 0>>
<<set $thinkT = 0>>
<<set $focusT = 0>>You pick up the pace and suddenly you aren't alone, 3 figures, translucent and mist-like enter from your peripheral vision, they move with you but seem to be free to twirl and twist around the space. What's more, they can leave your plane of existance to see your creation! They explore and return to you with news.
//Begin to colour in the Space around your planets, is it one colour, or many? Are there swirls. Does all of the space require Colour, or does some feel better left empty?//

<<set $lookC = 0>>
<<set $thinkC = 0>>
<<set $focusC = 0>>You speed up one more, and the figures tell you that fauna have been created.
//Are there any creatures in open space? You can outline them in, or add colours to suggest their existance. Are there creatures visible on the surface of the planet, does fauna mean a planet has to have animals as we know them?
You gaze down at the surface of the planets, their colours have shifted over time, what colour are the planet's surfaces now?
//Colour the surface of your planets. Do they need colour? Are they marbled?//
[[Finalize Creation]]
You open your eyes, it's not cold, not hot, not bright, not dark.
Simply Empty, just you.
//Please prepare your blank surface//

<</nobr>>You gaze into the emptyness. There truly is nothing.
Maybe there is the hint of something, incorporeal as a flicker of static.
//sketch an amourphous shape, a thread that will connect your universe together//
[[Try to move->Walk]]
<<nobr>><<if $Crea0 < 2>>
[[Think]]
<</if>><</nobr>><<nobr>><<set $Crea0 += 1>>
<</nobr>> Is Emptyness a space that is lacking and void, or one that is full of possibility? Maybe Emptyness is a space of tranquility and peace instead? Does every space need to be occupied with something? Does every second?

<</nobr>>You can only see your world from one perspective, are there more planets further beyond, hidden from your sight? How would they be affecting what you can see?

<</nobr>>You focus your gaze on each of your planets, it seems the further you walk, the more refined they become.
//Do any of your planets have rings? Maybe they have craters, or a chasm you hadn't noticed before. Fine tune the outline of your planets until they feel right.//

<</nobr>>The second tells you about the planets. They've begun to develop plant-life.
//use colours to suggest the life on your planets. Do they have water? Something else? Are there oceans? Continents. Do all the planets have plants, Are any of the planets like the gas-giants?//

<</nobr>> The third tells you of the the space around the planets.
//Do any of the planets have an atmosphere? If so, colour it in, does it surround the planet evenly? If any rings are present, colour them if you wish. Do any planets have Moons, maybe something else? surround your planets as you please.//
