Acellaris

Author: S.A.F.Clearance: Esz

Description:

File:Echros.gif

Echros is an entity of unknown nature positioned approximately 7.427 astronomical units from Acellaris in the direction of the galactic core. It has assumed the form of a black hole enveloped by a bright, slightly blue-tinted accretion disk. Any visual contact with the entity leads to an intense feeling of paranoia and impending doom in less than two days. Several subjects have exhibited a loss of lucidity a week after exposure, ultimately ending in suicide. The disorder has been internally recognized as Void Psychosis.

The entity was discovered in 1253 by an amateur astronomer visiting the Res Point Observatory in the mountains of southeastern Zesthosia. The monumental discovery was quickly published online. A reported 241 individuals had suffered from Echros' exposure and were involuntarily hospitalized prior to our awareness. The public has since been placed under the assumption that Echros was a hoax.

Void Psychosis:

The exact moment a subject's subconscious mind registers the presence of Echros, they are beyond saving. Pictures of the entity are safe to observe for no more than three minutes. Written descriptions seem to have no effect. By the present day, no known treatments of Void Psychosis exist.

Commonly encountered symptoms of Void Psychosis include:

- Paranoia.
- Visual hallucinations.
- Auditory hallucinations.
- Sense of impending doom.
- Loss of lucidity.
- Suicide.

Anomalous Properties:

Echros exhibits several anomalous properties:

- It is undetectable beyond visual observation.
- The gravity of Echros does not influence any objects in Acellaris.
- Echros occasionally 'jumps' to various locations in its vicinity.

Redaction:

In order to protect the public, the S.A.F. published several scientific articles that would 'disprove' the existence of Echros. Later

Later, most results of the black hole were obscured in search engines. Any discussions on Echros are redacted entirely.

Once the S.A.F. grew aware of Echros, we published several scientific articles that would deny the existence of the black hole. Among several explanations, it noted the gravitational influence that Echros would have otherwise had on Acellaris' planets.

Search engine results were later manipulated to obscure any information on Echros, including the aforementioned articles. Any discussions on the existence of Echros are completely redacted.

Theories:

A leading theory composed by researcher Allercia Seon states:

Echros is a fragment of an unrealized timeline that has intruded into ours. Echros' anomalous properties are then explained by the entity not properly integrating into our reality. The mental effects following visual contact with the entity could be an intense case of the Ralis Disorder, a well-documented mental disorder that manifests following a subject's exposure to a temporally foreign object.
