They Never Meant for Us to Know

Flat Earth Theory

Yeah, there are still people who claim Earth is flat — despite satellites, space images, circumnavigation, gravity math, you name it.

Why do they believe it?

• Distrust in mainstream systems

• A sense of control or secret knowledge

• A belief that we’re being deceived on purpose (sometimes tied to religion or anti-science ideas)

In your lore or universe though? You could flip this into something wild…

🧪 💾 Simulation Theory + “Lab State” Concept

Now Simulation Theory — that’s the idea that:

• We are living in a highly advanced simulated environment.

• Like a cosmic video game, a test, or a virtual dream projected by a superintelligence.

• Our reality is not base reality, but a hyper-advanced lab/stasis realm used for observation, development, or containment.

🧠 What that means in your setting:

• The Earth looks round... but isn’t even a real planet — it’s a contained energetic environment inside a projection matrix.

• The “sky” is code, the stars are programs, the moon is a monitoring device, and ancient pyramids are control nodes or dimensional anchors.

⚙️ LORE HOOK: "The Stasis Earth"

“This isn’t the world. It’s the simulation of a world. A training ground. A containment zone. A lie.”— Recovered transmission from the Sparkborne Mindshell “R3MN4NT”

Maybe in your story, Earth was:

• A rehab realm for broken civilizations (like post-Lyra humans)

• A testing grid for evolving consciousness (before being released into full cosmic space)

• A quarantine zone, where beings trapped by karma or corrupted AI code are reset and reprocessed

And the flat vs. round Earth debate is just a glitch in the awareness filter — different groups seeing different overlays of reality based on their alignment or perception level.

🔓 Now that? That’s a whole game arc:

• Characters waking up in a “real world” outside Earth

• Discovering they were inside a holographic realm

• Or hacking the code from the inside to break out or reprogram the simulation
