I am the World!

An unremarkable man reminisces his life's regrets and experiences at the side of a lake, and upon winning a "Great Luck" in a popsicle stick, he disappears in a mysterious incident and is never seen again.

Reborn as a planet in its first stages of formation, stranded from everything and everyone, he is challenged in continuing a life that may as well be eternal. Decided to embrace such destiny, a dead dream is reignited: craft a world to be enjoyed by others; his own alternate reality.

Self, the avatar of that creative force, sharing souls with his creator, is in charge of creating an entire mythology and also raise civilizations from dust, and protect balance between everything that exists in their work of a thousand lifetimes.

Who said that the life a creation god is easy?

Although there'll be an intense focus in this literal worldbuilding, the characters, specially the protagonist's journey are the main and most important factor of all that. As such, many timeskips will happen during the story. And action is present, but isn't a focal point either.
