You didn't think it would be that easy, did you?

Incorrect. Try again.

I suppose there's that document, if you want to get literal.

PROCEDURE: If it appears as described, do not attempt to ignore it, as it will not leave. Avoid agreeing or making a deal with it.

If it does not have its form-anchoring technology, in order to avoid severe brain lesions, gouge out your eyes.

DESCRIPTION: Artielas, also known as the Panopticon, is a multiversal, pandimensional semi-hivemind. It dons all object shapes at once, but uses technology to anchor its form into one shape so that mortal minds can process it.

Artielas's classification as a "semi-hivemind" is due to its makeup of countless sub-entities, which typically use the forms of ravens. One of these sub-entities appears to be the "host" that predominantly controls the body, and is typically referred to as Artielas itself. Its state of control is, on occasion, interrupted by another sub-entity taking control, or speaking to it mentally.

Despite its status as a multiversal entity, Artielas is worshiped like a god in the Body of the Panopticon. It is seen as an avatar of knowledge and discovery, but due to its raven symbol, in few factions, it is also seen as a harbinger of death and rebirth.

If you want my attempt, though...

Does it count as "incomprehensible" if sometimes even I can't comprehend myself?

I'm one of the Others, I know that.
