Level 789

## Level 789: "Why Was Six Afraid of Seven?"

### Description:

**Level 789**, at a glance, resembles a mathematical art museum, with the unstable properties becoming more pronounced as the level progresses.

The physical appearance of Level 789 is that of a modern art museum specializing in mathematical pieces. These pieces include models of complex geometric polyhedra, fractal art, mathematical optical illusions, artistic curves, tessellating planes/demonstrations of plannar symmetry, as well as other depictions of various mathematical constants such as the golden ratio.

Some of the pieces are present as 3-dimensional models that are either placed upon tables or encased in glass boxes for viewing. 2-dimensional pieces can be seen as pictures hung on walls, embroidered into carpets, or even making up the entire wall/ceiling/floor of a room.

Certain art pieces are created using very specific materials, whether it be paper, wood, rope, wires, or beads. These pieces range from a few inches in size to several meters large, with many requiring their own room. Some pieces are entire digital exhibitions that span across multiple rooms.

In addition to the art pieces, several strange objects have been observed floating around the various rooms. These objects visually match depictions of 4-dimensional objectss existing within a 3-dimensional space. Due to these features, these objects can pass through solid matter, shrink and grow in size, and even disappear and reappear in different locations. These higher-dimensional shapes also emit very specific radio frequencies which have been detected to match the digits of mathematical constants such as pi or the square root of 2, when measured in hertz.

The majority of the level operates under the standard properties of space and physical mathematics, but certain areas are more "unstable" than others. These areas are referred to as "mathematically incorrect spaces" and are believed to be the result of faults or deviations in basic laws of mathematics (e.g. the commutative, associative, and distributive laws). Very little information is known about these areas as documenting them is extremely risky; spending long amounts of time in one of these spaces will result in incredibly deteriorative effets, both physically and psychologically.

### Entities:

Entities, while present, are rarely seen within Level 789. The majorit of these entities are strange variants of their more common counterparts, with many examples including Smilers that appear as a ring of teeth surrounding multiple eyes, Clumps with appendages that clip through or fuse with each other, and a variation of the Memory Worm. This Memory Worm entity has only been seen in MIS areas, making observation difficult.

Logs and notes have also shown that a native entity will occasionally show themselves to people within the level. This entity, whose name was found to be "Telatrix", will attempt to manipulate those he encounters via a variety of methods. What exactly happens after is unknown, but those returning from an encounter have undergone a drastic physical and mental change.

### Colonies and Outposts:

Thare are no known colonies or outposts on Level 789, as the level's properties make long-term inhabitation almost impossible.

### Entrances and Exits:

#### Entrances:

Known entrances into Level 789 include Level -1, Level 4, Level 12, and The Metro.

#### Exits:

Certain digital exhibitions can lead to Level 25.
