Webnovel Worldbuilding Last

Core Principle

Worldbuilding comes last. Add only settings that support the plot, selling point, goal ladder, and character functions. Do not write an encyclopedia before the story can move.

Execution

1. **Read prior components**

• Plot seed, selling point, goals, protagonist, and supporting cast must exist.

2. **Derive necessary settings**

• What rules make the selling point work?
• What institutions create the stage goals?
• What locations enable the first arcs?
• What limits prevent the protagonist from solving everything too easily?

3. **Write minimum viable worldbuilding**

• Keep only rules that will appear in early story or drive conflict.

4. **Cut decorative lore**

• If a setting does not affect choices, conflict, or reader expectation, mark it as later.

Output Format
