Okay, what the hell is “flat earth theory”?

This isn’t serious. There aren’t actually humans who think their planet is flat. You have space exploration - more or less.

This has to be some kind of joke.



Right?

I've been to your moon. That's saying something. There was a military base there and everything!

[droptheious]

Oh wow really? It's not there in this time, but that's pretty impressive.

But yeah, very blatantly real.

[thearchangel]

Yeah, I didn't see any mention of it from what I've been reading. No research station on Mars either... Guess you're further back than I thought.

The moon, all your planets, and the rest of the galaxy is very, very real. I agree.

[droptheious]

Oh wow yeah no. Nowhere near that far. Admittedly I'm a little behind on my own research on how far space travel is. I uh... lost the taste for it.

[Event Horizon ruined space for him forever. ]

[thearchangel]

You did? Sorry to hear that.

Guess it's not for everyone, these days. But - it's hard to imagine. It's so ingrained in everything back home.

[droptheious]

It's... fine, it was over a year ago but still. This world sucks sometimes.

I bet it was. Honestly I thought it was pretty cool. Until I was in it.

[thearchangel]

I guess it would be a lot to take in, given the tech in this world. Overwhelming, maybe.

I ah - I'm not trying to pry here, really. Trying to wrap my head around it, though.

[droptheious]

Oh, no. The tech part was fine. It was the portal to hell that made everyone crazy and start hallucinating and killing each other that did it.

...October is usually a bad time here. Fair warning.

[thearchangel]

The






The what?

[droptheious]

The portal to hell. It was on a ship called the Event Horizon. They were attempting to manufacture a black hole to make faster than light travel.

It went worse than you would expect.

[thearchangel]

[.... every time he thinks he has a handle on this weird ass place, black holes come up.]

No I - can picture a hell of a lot of ways that could go wrong. I really, really can. And that's - that's only from a technological standpoint.

[droptheious]

I know, right! Like already it was dangerous enough and then, nope, added weird magic nonsense to the mix and everyone started killing each other.
