A god sets the stage. Messily.

A creator, with an interest in plays (from world #227) makes a world. But what will he choose for the sentient life form? Of course he has this bad habit of not cleaning up once he is done testing. Where did you think those mystic ruins came from?

What to do?

What do I make next? the being thought. Perhaps I needs consult the *Book** for once.* With that, the being, cloaked in power as he was, made his little black book that he used to record his notes. Hmm there isn't much I haven't made by now, all that's left is... an island. With that, the entity metaphysically shuddered. He had never been very good at islands. They always became huge landmasses, or got destroyed be astral wendigos. But, all things must strive. And so must I.

Much tectonic plate manipulation later.................

Upon seeing his creation, the beings thought could be described as this:I need more practice. Of courser being a supreme being he was above the concept of practice. He really should of learned to go back the drawing board. This world was terrible. He could already tell that it would become huge and unruly. He should just obliterate this, and go back the forests. but something stayed his power. There was combination that no being had tried before, meaning he could be the expert on it. A rapidly increasing island-based landmass........ and ponies.

The being, having experience, knew that plants and such must be placed before fauna could come around. He would also have to hire someone to watch over the land, not wishing to risk a case of astral windigos. To jump-start the  worlds magic field, he decided to use zapapple trees. He had to be careful though. If even one thing went wrong, then he'd have a constantly deteriorating reality. And people capable of fixing that were a commodity ever since the destruction a gallifrey.

As he pondered this, he remembered something about using zapapples. Everfree syndrome, wasn't it called?

Later..............

So that's what Everfree syndrome was. A small portion of the world typically would have "normal" weather patterns and animals. However, the rest would require sentient intervention. Luckily, the Everfree forest would be there to to show the new life how it's done. Hopefully.
