And in Flatland everybody is a polygon of fixed size. Then one day...

...[but I get ahead of myself: "The story posits a two dimensional world (Flatland). The narrator, a humble square, guides us through some of the implications of life in two dimensions. Square has a dream about a visit to a one-dimensional world (Lineland), and attempts to convince the realm's ignorant monarch of a second dimension."]

Then one day a being from another dimension visits Flatland. As this being passes through their space, they all can see this point that becomes a line which then expands and then contracts to a point and disappears. Nothing like that had ever been seen before! Many deny it happened, that those who claim they saw it must be delusional. They argue and argue until one day the sphere makes another pass through their territory and more people see the phenomenon.
