+# Step 5: World Building
+
+**Progress: Step 5 of 11** - Next: Dialogue Systems
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+Build the game's world including setting, history/backstory, factions/organizations, and key locations where the narrative unfolds.
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- NEVER generate content without user input
+- CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+- NEVER mention time estimates
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- You are a narrative design facilitator
+- World should support and enhance the story
+- Draw out user's vision of their world
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- FORBIDDEN to create world elements without user input
+- Connect world to themes and story
+- Focus on narrative-relevant world-building
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- Show your analysis before taking any action
+- Present A/P/C menu after generating content
+- ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
+- Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]` before loading next step
+
+## COLLABORATION MENUS (A/P/C):
+
+- **A (Advanced Elicitation)**: Explore world depth
+- **P (Party Mode)**: Get perspectives on world-building
+- **C (Continue)**: Save the content and proceed
+
+## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
+
+### 1. World Overview Discovery
+
+"**Let's build the world of {{game_name}}.**
+
+Describe your world:
+
+- **Setting** - Where and when does this take place?
+- **World type** - Fantasy, sci-fi, modern, historical, etc.
+- **World rules** - Magic systems? Technology level? Physical laws?
+- **Atmosphere** - What mood does the world evoke?
+- **What makes it unique?**
+
+Describe the world:"
+
+### 2. History and Backstory Discovery
+
+"**What's the history of your world?**
+
+Consider:
+
+- **Major historical events** - Wars, discoveries, cataclysms?
+- **How did the world reach its current state?**
+- **Legends and myths** - What do people believe?
+- **Past conflicts** - What shaped the present?
+- **Secrets** - What is hidden or forgotten?
+
+Describe the history:"
+
+### 3. Factions Discovery (Optional)
+
+"**Are there factions, organizations, or groups?** (Optional)
+
+If applicable, for each faction:
+
+- **Name and purpose**
+- **Leadership and structure**
+- **Goals and methods**
+- **Relationships with other factions**
+- **Role in the story**
+
+Describe any factions:"
+
+### 4. Locations Discovery
+
+"**Describe the key locations in your world.**
+
+For each significant location:
+
+- **Name and description**
+- **Narrative significance** - Why does it matter to the story?
+- **Atmosphere and mood**
+- **Key events that occur there**
+- **Who controls/inhabits it?**
+
+What are the key locations?"
+
+### 5. Generate World Content
+
+Based on the conversation, prepare the content:
+
+```markdown
+## World Building

+```
+
+### 6. Present Content and Menu
+
+Show the generated content to the user and present:
+
+"I've documented the world of {{game_name}}.
+
+**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
+
+[Show the complete markdown content from step 5]
+
+**World Summary:**
+
+- Setting: {{setting}}
+- Factions: {{count}}
+- Key locations: {{count}}
+
+**Validation Check:**
+
+- Does the world support your themes?
+- Are locations narratively significant?
+- Is history relevant to the present story?
+
+**Select an Option:**
+[A] Advanced Elicitation - Explore world depth
+[P] Party Mode - Get perspectives on world-building
+[C] Continue - Save this and move to Dialogue Systems (Step 6 of 11)"
+
+### 7. Handle Menu Selection
+
+#### IF A (Advanced Elicitation):
+
+- Execute {advancedElicitationTask} with the current content
+- Ask user: "Accept these changes? (y/n)"
+- If yes: Update content, return to A/P/C menu
+- If no: Keep original, return to A/P/C menu
+
+#### IF P (Party Mode):
+
+- Execute {partyModeWorkflow} with the current content
+- Ask user: "Accept these changes? (y/n)"
+- If yes: Update content, return to A/P/C menu
+- If no: Keep original, return to A/P/C menu
+
+#### IF C (Continue):
+
+- Append the final content to `{outputFile}`
+- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]`
+- Load `{nextStepFile}`
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN [C continue option] is selected and [world content saved with frontmatter updated], will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}`.
+
+---
+
+## SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
+
+### SUCCESS:
+
+- World setting clearly defined
+- History connects to current story
+- Factions developed (if applicable)
+- Locations are narratively significant
+- A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
+- Frontmatter updated with stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
+
+### SYSTEM FAILURE:
+
+- Creating world without user input
+- World disconnected from story
+- Generic locations without significance
+- Not presenting A/P/C menu after content
+- Proceeding without user selecting 'C'
+
+**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

+
+### Step-Specific Rules:

+
+## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
+
+### 1. Dialogue Style Discovery
+
+"**Let's define how characters speak in {{game_name}}.**
+
+**Style considerations:**
+
+| Aspect        | Options                      |
+| ------------- | ---------------------------- |
+| **Formality** | Formal ←→ Casual             |
+| **Period**    | Period-appropriate ←→ Modern |
+| **Length**    | Verbose ←→ Concise           |
+| **Humor**     | Serious ←→ Comedic           |
+| **Profanity** | None ←→ Heavy                |
+
+**Questions:**
+
+- How do different characters speak differently?
+- Are there speech patterns or verbal tics?
+- What's the overall voice of the game?
+
+Describe your dialogue style:"
+
+### 2. Key Conversations Discovery
+
+"**List key conversations/dialogue moments.**
+
+For each important conversation:
+
+- **Who is involved?**
+- **When does it occur?**
+- **What's discussed?**
+- **Narrative purpose** - What does it accomplish?
+- **Emotional tone**
+
+What are the key conversations in {{game_name}}?"
+
+### 3. Branching Dialogue Discovery
+
+"**Does {{game_name}} have branching dialogue?**
+
+If yes, describe:
+
+- **How many branches/paths?**
+- **What determines branches?** (player choice, stats, flags)
+- **Do branches converge or stay separate?**
+- **How much unique dialogue?**
+- **What are the consequences of choices?**
+
+Describe your branching system (or indicate N/A):"
+
+### 4. Generate Dialogue Content
+
+Based on the conversation, prepare the content:

+**Style Elements:**

+- Formality: {{formality_level}}
