We introduce the \textbf{Concept Field} of a text corpus: a local drift field with pointwise uncertainty, estimated in sentence-embedding space from the deltas between consecutive sentences. Given a candidate sentence transition, we score its agreement with the field by $ζ$, the mean absolute z-distance between the observed delta and the field's local Gaussian estimate. The score is black-box (no model internals), corpus-attributable (every score traces to nearby corpus sentences), and admits a probabilistically motivated interpretation under a local Gaussian approximation. We support the computation with the introduction of a \textbf{Vector Sequence Database (VSDB)} that stores embeddings together with sequence-position and next-delta metadata. We evaluate this approach on two large-scale settings: hallucination-style groundedness detection over the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, and novelty detection over Project Gutenberg. On controlled LLM-generated rewrites, Concept Fields achieve strong selective classification performance under a grounded / ungrounded / unsure triage policy. Unlike retrieval-centric baselines, the resulting coverage-risk behavior is similar across both domains, supporting a degree of cross-domain stability for the standardized deviation score. We also sketch how divergence and curl of the Concept Field, computed on dense clusters, surface qualitatively meaningful semantic patterns (logic sources, sinks, and implicit topics), which we offer as hypothesis-generating rather than as a quantitative result. Concept Fields provide a fast, lightweight, and interpretable signal for groundedness and novelty, complementary to LLM-as-judge and white-box detectors.
