I trust you accept that the world is spherical? You could set off in one direction and eventually get back to where you started, right? I mean, the evidence is quite literally beyond question - explorers have circumnavigated the globe thousands of times over the centuries, astronauts have taken photographs and video footage and so on.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
