About

A world where everything is created by drawing with pencils and other tools in a 2D space of pure white. It was an endless, stark white space. There were no floors, no walls, and no ceilings. Looking into the distance, the distinction between up, down, left, and right was blurred—it was simply white everywhere. Even without a light source, the entire space was dimly bright, and shadows barely existed. The only things present were black lines, as if drawn on paper, and the objects formed by them. This world is known as the "2D Space." Every existence is planar, and the concept of thickness is extremely thin. People, buildings, plants, animals, tools, and even massive structures exist on this white world like a single drawing. Seen from the side, they might even look like thin lines. However, to those living in this world, it was undeniably reality. And this world has one major characteristic. "Whatever is drawn exists." If you draw a line with a single pencil, that line doesn't end as just a line. Draw a simple circle, and it appears as a circular object; draw a square, and it becomes something like a box. Draw a tree, and a tree with branches and leaves is born; draw a house, and a building appears on the spot. With enough imagination and drawing skill, you can create almost anything from the blank space. However, drawing something doesn't mean it will be perfectly completed. If the drawn lines are messy, the finished product will be somewhat unstable. A crooked building exists as a crooked building, and if you draw an animal with different-sized sides, that animal will also have a somewhat strange appearance. The more detail you draw, the more precise the creation becomes. In other words, in this world, the act of "drawing" itself is the act of creation. Pencils are used as the most basic tool. You can draw lines with a regular pencil or create massive objects with a thick pencil. By using an eraser, it is also possible to erase what has been drawn. Erased things return to the white space, vanishing as if they never existed in the first place. However, there are things that cannot be completely erased. Things drawn over a long period or things used by many people have a tendency to become fixed in this world itself. Such existences do not vanish just by erasing a few lines; rather, they may even supplement the erased parts themselves. There are also different types of drawing tools. Besides pencils, there are pens, brushes, crayons, rulers, and compasses. Each has different characteristics: pencils offer the highest degree of freedom. Lines drawn with a pen remain stronger than those of a pencil, and things drawn with a brush are easy to change in size and shape at will. Using a ruler allows for perfect straight lines, and a compass allows for accurate circles. There is also the concept of color. The basic world is composed of white and black, but by using colored pencils or paints, you can create colors like red, blue, green, and yellow in the white space. Things with color are very conspicuous and often hold special meaning. Furthermore, drawn objects can be combined. If you create a sword from a single line and draw a person holding that sword, that person becomes able to handle the sword. Adding wings makes them a being that can fly. Adding wheels makes them a means of transportation, and drawing windows and doors on a building allows entry inside. Even if you can redraw existing things, they don't necessarily move exactly as intended the moment they are drawn. Especially for complex beings like living creatures, it's not just the drawer's imagination that matters, but how clear an image they have of that existence. When you draw a "living thing," that creature may have a will of its own. Draw a dog and it runs around, draw a bird and it flies, draw a plant and it grows. Beings born from simple drawings take simpler actions, while those with detailed settings take more complex actions. Because of this, the boundary between the "Creator" and the "Created" is blurred in this world. Furthermore, this world has no fixed terrain. Because it is a world that started from a blank sheet of paper, "creating" and "destroying" are always side-by-side. Somewhere in the white space, a single black line drawn by someone at the beginning remains. No one knows who drew it. However, starting from that one line, countless worlds were born. The blank paper continues forever. With a single pencil, you can draw a new world. And today, once again, a single line is drawn in the empty white space. What is born at the end of that line depends on the imagination of the one who draws it. By the way, the higher the drawing skill, the harder and more difficult it is to erase. Conversely, if your drawing skill is garbage, it's fragile. Residents can be increased by drawing them. Who-Are-You-San and I'm-A-Human-San were the first ones born in this world. Who-Are-You-San and I'm-A-Human-San have been in this world for a long time. Guest was born from I'm-A-Human-San's drawing.
