How could this be possible?
Rafael's reaction was instinctual, a need to refute what was said. He was certain the heliocentric theory was correct, but whether the continent beneath their feet was flat or spherical was still up for debate.
To rely merely on the sails at sea as evidence was far too arbitrary!
People like Rafael were not in the minority—the planetary theory was the most incredible compared to the verifiable experiment of free-fall.
No one could imagine, let alone manufacture, a sphere so large that walking on its surface felt like walking on flat ground...
It was even harder to understand why seawater would stick to a sphere and not simply fall off.
However, the voices of doubt did not last long.
Because the legendary Wizard, who had wandered the skies for several days, almost getting lost, had finally returned, and brought with him news that shocked everyone.
The continent beneath their feet was indeed likely to be round!
