"Confabulation" also sounds too anthropomorphic to my tastes. Especially because "fabrication" often implies "intent to" by the actor in question. It's the exact same problem as "bullshit", just the G-rated grandiloquent version. To be fair, human languages were built to anthropomorphize almost everything so finding the right terms here is hard.

“WorldMaker” seems to be a little anthropomorphized to me.
