首先是介绍杀机世界观里的最大boss。
中文翻译：恶灵
英文原文：the entity

好

This thing, that I dubbed The Entity, is evil in its purest form. I find it hard to spot, but I can hear the cracking sound this loathsome thing emanates. Like a deity, it surrounds the area, closing in on me as its Killers hunt me. It does not seem to be dangerous in itself. Not until you are caught and the Killer hangs you from one of the abhorrent Hooks. I have ended up there over and over and every time I yearn for both release as well as escape. Pain melts with fear in a most horrid way. Yet I return to it, more or less every night. Once on the Hook, Entity takes over, pulling one upwards to something else.
~ Benedict Baker's Journal, November 1896

“被我称之为恶灵的东西，是一种纯粹的邪恶存在。我发现我很难察觉到它，但是我能听到这令人憎恶的东西发出的刺耳声音。它就像是一柱神祇，包裹着这块区域，在杀手猎杀我时，它紧随其后。它看似并不危险，然而当我被抓到时，杀手讲你吊在一根可恶的钩子上。每当我渴望解脱与逃离时，我一次又一次在钩子上终结。痛苦和恐惧以最惊悚的方式融为一体。而每个晚上我都将回归于祂的怀抱。一旦上钩，恶灵将会好好款待你，并最终将某个祭品送往上空”——本尼迪克特·贝克的日记，1896年11月
【在老家，先部分引用wiki，回去有电脑之后开游戏做详细介绍】
从这里不难看出，恶灵是存在于一个特殊领域中的，他在这个领域无处不在，他是纯粹的邪恶个体，基本上所有东西都是恶灵的一部分，而恶灵为毛要这么干呢？

The Entityis an almighty malevolent being, travelling through the cosmos and slowly consuming worlds.
It creates the nightmarishRealmsof the Trial Grounds to trap its victims,Survivors andKillers in an endless cycle of Trials, with the intent of feeding on its victims' strongest emotions, allowing it to grow in power and slowly consume another world. The Observer describes it as one of the"Original Ones", also known as an"Ancient".

恶灵（The entity）被描述为一种全能，法力无边的存在，在宇宙中游走并慢慢吞噬着世界，它更像是一位邪神般的东西。祂创造了幻境，一个如同噩梦一般的试验场，杀手和逃生者们在无休止得审判循环中无法自拔，目的是为了吸收逃生者们的各种强烈的情绪，这会让恶灵的力量更加强大，同时慢慢地吞噬这个世界。
“观察者”将其描述为“original ones”（ 初始者，有克系神话内味儿了）或是“ancient”（远古者）。
上述出现了游戏的大体框架以及一个关键人物，“观察者”

观察者，前几个版本里，游戏内古书任务界面会有一个不露脸的神秘人，他自称是观察者（The Observer），别称“囚犯（The Prisoner）”或“档案管理员（The Archivist）
这个人在图书馆里喝酒，打球，看书，看似写意，但是实际上也是个悲剧人物，不过他很厉害，可以说是曾经有机会和恶灵来一场巅峰对决的人物。

居然在汪吧里看到了黎明杀机

Arcus 08
Fate. What is fate, but a series of moments and choices that define our lives? Roses we want to remember? And thorns we can never forget?
Futile as the thought experiment is, I sometimes wonder where I would be had I made different choices. I sometimes wonder, if I had not been interested in Celestials, would I have even noticed The Entity?
Had I not witnessed the destruction of an entire world, would I have wanted to know more? Had I not gone against The council, would I have been banished within the very thing I'd tried to destroy?
There is a moment in all of our lives, when our choices catch up to us. A moment that changes us forever. A moment... of reckoning!

翻译
命运什么是命运，而是定义我们生活的一系列时刻和选择？我们想记住的玫瑰？还有我们永远无法忘记的荆棘？
虽然思想实验是徒劳的，但我有时会想，如果我做出不同的选择，我会在哪里。我有时会想，如果我对天体不感兴趣，我会注意到恶灵吗？
如果我没有亲眼目睹整个世界的毁灭，我会想知道更多吗？如果我没有反对议会，我会被驱逐到我试图摧毁的东西里面吗？
在我们所有的生活中，都有一个时刻，当我们的选择赶上了我们，这一时刻将永远改变我们。正是属于某人的。。。审判日！
从观察者的自述可以得知，观察者一族因为兴趣而观察天体，导致看到了恶灵的存在，而世界的毁灭，很明显了，就是恶灵直接把他们的世界吞了。
而观察者也沦落到了恶灵的领域内，成为了一个囚犯，不过他对比其他囚犯要好太多了。

出自arcus 07
There are things of the Abyss that are left unexplored and undiscovered. Things beyond our understanding. For to see or hear or try to comprehend them is to lose one's grip on reality and plunge into a fathomless pit of madness.
Of The Entity I know little, if anything at all. What I have witnessed and concluded through my imprisonment within its timeless living boundaries, is The Entity seems to move through the cosmos like a primordial Titan. An incomprehensible Serpent of Chaos, consuming people and worlds for reasons I cannot even begin to comprehend... and won't even try.
Searching for a way to escape this endless horror has been my sole preoccupation. To this end, I study memories from The Fog. Memories from Survivors who have escaped or who will escape this timeless dimension.
Snatched from worlds not unlike my own, these Survivors are forced to suffer endless agonies, that seem to nourish The Entity with some indescribable psychic sustenance. Some embrace the endless Trials as they search for a way to escape. Others don't realise they are caught in an endless cycle and live the horror anew every time they are resurrected: Activating Generators, repowering the Gate, running for their lives, only to do it all over again!
Some Survivors lose their ability to feel anything. These Survivors are flushed into The Void.

深渊中有些东西还未被探索和发现。我们无法理解的事情。因为看到、听到或试图理解它们，就会失去对现实的把握，陷入一个难以理解的疯狂深渊。
关于实体，我几乎一无所知。我通过囚禁在永恒的生命边界内所目睹和总结的是，实体似乎像一个原始的泰坦一样在宇宙中移动。
一条无法理解的混沌之蛇，吞噬着人们和世界，原因我甚至无法理解。。。甚至不会尝试。
寻找一种逃离这种无尽恐惧的方法一直是我唯一的任务。为此，我研究了《迷雾》中的记忆。幸存者的记忆，他们已经逃离或将逃离这个永恒的维度。
这些幸存者被困在和我一样的世界里，他们被迫承受无尽的痛苦，这似乎给实体带来了难以形容的精神寄托。有些人在寻找逃跑的方法时，拥抱无尽的审判。其他人没有意识到自己陷入了一个无休止的循环，每次复活时都会重新体验恐怖：激活发电机，重新启动大门，逃命，只为重新开始！
一些幸存者失去了感知任何事物的能力。这些幸存者被扔进了虚空。
上述依旧是观察者日记，记载了恶灵的行为，和之前所说的吻合。
观察者能够读取不同逃生者的记忆，其中提到了已经逃出去的逃生者，就是剧情里的究极人皇“威戈”
这人成功从恶灵的领域中逃了出去，同时为后来逃生者制作了很多道具，可以说对恶灵竖了一个中指了。

上述还提到了，部分被无尽循环的逃生者，已经被榨干，失去了任何感知事务的能力，所以被像垃圾那样无情扔进了虚空。

The Entity is the cosmic embodiment of evil. Back home we witnessed how its very presence turns worlds inside out… how it seems to remove or extinguish any sense of empathy or compassion within communities… how it brings people to the brink of madness and… well… pushes them in. Now I understand it does all this in order to rip victims from their lives and have them play out an endless trial of terror that it presumably needs for its own survival. And there, perhaps, lies the key to its destruction… if an Ancient can be destroyed at all.
End the trials. Destroy its ability to sap dark nectar from victims like a cruel parasite feeding from a flower. At least the Archives affords me a better understanding of the Entity… why it moves from universe to universe, picking victims off and devouring worlds as though at a cosmic buffet. What I have yet to conclude is whether it is attracted to worlds that are brimming with darkness and madness or if it is in fact the catalyst of such darkness and madness.
