The Protectors of the Canonical Worlds/Supplementary Works/Cosmic Chronicles/U1

<tabber>Chapter 1=Part 1:The Creation of Worlds
Nobody truly knows where space and time began. However, nearly every world out there has been created. The only known exception to this is World Prime. When a work of fiction is made in World Prime, unknown to everyone in that world, a new world is created, where the events take place.
How does this happen? It happens because the world is made of information. Yes, the digitalists are right on that front:The multiverse is indeed, fundamentally made up of information.
So, when a book is made, the information carried within that book takes a life of its own outside of World Prime, and thus, forms a continuum. A world of its own.
As sequels and prequels are released, the world gets more and more detailed. Prequels will retroactively create a past for the world that wasn't there-Or at least, take the past and make it more detailed. World Prime, as far as we know, was the world where all other worlds come from.
Part 2:Fanfiction
But, there are no laws of nature that state that only the original author can make material describing a world. What happens if someone else decides to tell a story in that world?
Well, in that case, you have fanfiction. And they can also affect the world, just as canonical material can. After all, there is no fundamental difference between the two.
However, the canonical material is more generally accepted in World Prime, and thus, the worlds tend to stay consistent, and trend towards the envision of the original authors. Though good fanfiction can add more depth to the world that was never there, making the world stronger than ever before! This is part of why fanfiction even exists. Fanfiction is good.. As long as you do it right.
...But unfortunately, not all fanfiction does it right. Not all fanfiction is good. There is also bad fanfiction. Fanfiction that gets it wrong.
