Kaori entered the office and could already see the impact that the words of Lerrelan were having. There were deities practically swarming the former angels and demons for information about Earth. Kaori cleared her throat and all eyes were on her in an instant. She began asking for status updates even though she had reviewed the information on her PDI already. Everyone began giving concise updates on what their teams were doing and where they were on the final designs.
Overall, Kaori determined that they were over 80% done with the planning stages and anything they had left would be better seen in practice anyway. What astounded Kaori the most were the numerous hybrid breeds that had been created by her deities. There were over thirty varieties of sentients for water alone! This more than covered her initial design ideas. She told the teams that would be in charge of sentient tribe placement to begin coming up with the basic prompt for backstories for all of them.
She then announced that she was pressing the button and that they would be moving ahead with their designs for the planet. Kaori summoned the book and pressed the big pause button on it. The globe of the world suddenly stopped turning and the modified version followed suit. Kaori went to one of the work stations and pulled up images of the tribes below. All the elves were frozen in place. It was crunch time.
The first thing to be done was to relocate all of the elves. The deities in charge of the elves, The two elven deities, Eremileane and Somolos, took their small team of lesser deities and began grabbing all of the elves along with their belongings. It helped that most of them had already packed up their belongings. Getting a message from the gods to pack for a trip will have that effect, she mused to herself.
Once the teams of elven deities finished stashing the last of the elves in the pocket dimension for holding sentients, Kaori engaged the terrain alteration system. Kaori glanced at the monitor on her desk and found that the holding dimension was absolutely full of thousands or perhaps even hundreds of thousands of beings that the deities had been hard at work creating. Kaori marveled once again at the efficiency of her teams of deities. To pull off that level of creation in a matter of days was truly impressive.
Kaori suddenly had a worry and checked the total number of new beings in the holding dimension. She then had a look at the number of souls in her afterlife dimension. It was there that she got a major shock. Her afterlife had over a hundred million souls running around in it! She would have enough new souls for everything she could dream of doing for the unforeseeable future.
Content with her numbers, Kaori turned back to the work progressing on the world below. The moment she had pressed the button for the terrain tool, teams of deities flooded onto the scene to play with… to begin work. Yes, better to think of it in a professional manner. Nevermind that most of them had maniacal grins on their faces as they went about shifting entire miniature continents about.
Next up came the inclusion of the resources. Yaju had taken over in this area for the time. He began summoning huge asteroids and hurling them at the newly forming continent and islands. Every so often, he would pause to open his PDI and check the map of the forming terrain to see what mineral deposits were supposed to go where. On the ground, Einoro led the teams that were reshaping the impact sites and varying the depths of all the resources.

This work went on in shifts for several weeks. Once that was done, it was time to add in the floating islands. Kaori activated the terrain alteration feature for that and summoned the deposits of float stone. Some islands got more than others and the amount of this rare material determined how high the islands would eventually go. There were also numerous deposits of it being flung down by Yaju for the inhabitants to dig up later on the surface of the world.
After the islands were finished, it was time to set up all the various strange phenomena that Kaori had decided to purchase for the world. There were natural teleportation sites, entrances to pocket dimensions, some full of rare and valuable resources, there were places with stronger or weaker gravity, places with stronger or weaker magic, places where various natural phenomena were suspended or redoubled. One place that kaori always liked was from a series of games and it was a vast field of wasteland where lightning would strike relentlessly. She added this spot into her world with a malicious grin. That would be one of the more dangerous places, filled with djinn, genies, lightning elementals, and even a few lightning dragons.
After the basics it was time for the more hands on portions. This time, Kaori activated the weather system. Clouds appeared in the skys of her world for the first time ever. Kaori then began crafting storms and winds and such. All of this had been planned but implementing it was a bit of an art. It wasn’t enough to just make the weather systems and let them go. They all had to be tested to make sure that the paths set up would work the way they were supposed to.
To that end, Kaori used the time manipulation function of her book. While paused and devoid of inhabitants, a world’s time could be fast forwarded or rewound as much as the deity in charge wanted. This was the point where they tested out the weather patterns and storm formation parameters before leaving the system running for a few thousand years over the next few days to get the right weathering of the land formations.
Next up, they added in all of the vegetation packages and began canvassing the landscape with broad swathes of life. These packages replaced the existing local vegetation as the deity using it layered it over the area. The forests, jungles, prairies, and savannas. This world was looking more and more inviting all the time! In less than a month’s time, the world was covered in a dense carpet of vegetation under the close guidance from Tozenna who felt a close connection to this part of the process.
The time manipulation was once again employed and the plant life proliferated across the world with the surety of a world devoid of herbivores will. Kaori had to make sure that the atmospheric levels remained constant by pumping huge amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. She considered just letting the bacteria handle it but then decided against it. She didn’t want the numbers of bacteria and algae to explode so she put her hand into things.
Next up was wildlife and this went much the same as all of the previous parts. The only real difference was that this was the point where she introduced some of the oldest of the dungeons. Throwing a few dungeons down at differing points in the fast-forwarding process with the animals. This made certain old dungeons where only plants or animals were present.
The next step in the chain of events was to install the monsters. There were only a few that had sentience and those would be held back until the other sentients were set down. Kaori only gave the monsters about a century to proliferate before she paused the clock for the final time. All that was left was to add the intelligent life to the world and sit back to watch future events unfold.
