The only known photo of Level 1,666.

Level 1,666 is the 667th level of Cluster II. It was first discovered and miraculously survived by an anonymous Discord user.

Description:

Level 1,666 appears as a deep, underground cavern that is unsettlingly similar to ancient depictions of Hell and the Underworld. Filled with magma pools and spouts of flowing lava, the temperature is extremely hot, ranging from 48 °C (120 °F) to 93 °C (200 °F).

Some areas are extremely spacious, with cliffs hanging over large oceans of magma. Stalactites and stalagmites are everywhere, and the walls are dripping with a corrosive substance eerily similar to Liquid Pain. Air is thin and oxygen is sparse, mostly being replaced with toxic substances. The air is said to smell overwhelmingly metallic to the point of being completely putrid, and particles of the same substance coating the walls is also said to be in the air. Caution is advised to avoid slipping; and you should wear heavy gear and never take off your shoes.

The distant screams of the damned can be heard occasionally, along with the sounds of crackling fire and ringing church bells. It is unknown where these sounds originate. Additionally, brick structures can be found; which can vary from small empty residences to impossibly large fortresses. These areas are filled to the brim with entities, however they can have a surplus of valuable resources. You can also find gravestones which can appear as crosses or other headstones. The rock that these structures are made from are said to be the same material that makes up the rest of the cavern.

Level 1,666 is said to be infested with all kinds of dangerous entities, many being exclusive to Cluster II. Hellbounds, Pace Walkers, and Ambassadors are some of the most common, as well as Twitchflies; which were originally thought to be exclusive to Level 1,015. Furthermore, many have even reported seeing mythological entities such as imps or other demonic beings. These beings are extremely hostile, and will resort to practicing gruesome torture methods on most wanderers. Much of these torture methods are also personalized to the wanderer in question. It should also be noted that it is much more difficult to die on this level, leaving many people left in unimaginable pain.

The Incident Reports

WARNING: The following has graphic depictions of torture methods. Viewer digression is advised.

[+] Access Level 1,666 Incident-001

The following is an incident report made by a wanderer, which has been censored accordingly. The Wanderer in question was an anonymous Discord user, who is noted to be the first one to discover this level. They were known to have a fear of the blood eagle torture method.

The Wanderer, after entering this level, had reported entering from Level 1,017, after staying on the tree for long enough. It is unknown why exactly they were chosen to enter this level, and they instantly felt the warmth of this level, which caused them extreme pain. They eventually came across an imp-like entity, which grabbed them by the neck and took them to an unknown location, in which it would bend their ribs, one by one, which is commonly known as the blood eagle torture method: the one they were deathly afraid of. The wanderer has since been deeply traumatized by this event, and miraculously survived to tell the tale, ending up in Level 1,001. It is unknown where they are now.

A second anonymous wanderer has reported finding themselves on Level 1,666. The result of this experience demonstrates how it is nearly impossible to die on this level. The following is their experience.

After entering this level, the wanderer was hit with a wave of intense fear. They cautiously traversed through the level, trying not to fall in the magma. Unfortunately, they had lost their balance and fell in the lava ocean, in which they had started burning alive. They described the pain as completely unbearable and it "felt like I shouldn't have been alive for that long". They had sunk in the lava for hours, waiting for the pain to end, when they suddenly found themselves in the next level. They reported their experience, and just like the last, were heavily traumatized by their experience on the level.

Entrances and Exits:

Due to the lack of evidence and detailed reports, it is unknown how to enter this level. However, there is a theorized entrance on Level 1,017. The only known way to leave is to attempt to rise your elevation by going only through hallways that lead upwards. It is unknown where this takes you, but it is rumored to transport one to the next Level.
