>>22249434If there is land outside of the Ice circle, then it stands to reason that there are civilizations that exist on it. Perhaps they are much more advanced than us and have outright threatened us to not go outside the Ice barrier or else the "peace" that we have will be broken.
In other words, the entire region with the Ice circle is a fucking prison and should be called Greater Australia, because this is where the descendants of the criminals outside of the Ice circle have been sent to live in.
Of course, that's if this is true. I can't think of any reason why a civilization that's either as advanced as us or even more advanced would just want to be hidden from us.
