DannyMay 2019. Day Eight
"World Building"
I didn't like this one to be honest.
King Daniel the Phantom contemplated Earth, his homeworld, and marveled at how much it had changed in the milleniums he was away. He couldn't recognize it; the continents' shapes had changed, new islands emerged and old ones were swallowed into the ocean.
He wondered what had been of his home, how was the portal, if maybe he could find it…
No. Danny had to leave, for good, he couldn't afford nostalgia to hold him down.
Danny contemplated the nothingness ahead of him, only stars giving it life. He lifted a hand and his eyes were shining such a bright green it would have been blinding had someone been watching.
Then out of nowhere, a peeble appeared. And it grew, and changed, and became something else.
When Danny finally touched the ground, blue grass started growing with his every step, and then flowers, and plants, and trees never seen on Earth.
He sighed, and wind moved the flora and from the gusts of wind birds appeared flapping their wings.
Danny gave a Ghostly Wail and saw how green insects with swirling whites came to life as they moved, carrying his scream with them.
He kicked a rock and a canyon appeared, scratched his head and deserts came to exist; opened his arms and saw how all kind of impossible creatures (and a puppy) came towards him.
As he giggled, flowers grew around him.
And he was just getting started.
