Backstory: SCP 416 was discovered in a small village deep in the mountains of [Redacted]. It appeared to be the subject of a strange religion the locals called "The Enlightening". Followers appear to be very docile and timid, except for any mention of the Converter. Positive references are met with joy and welcome. Negative references are met with scorn, shunning, or even outright violence for the worst offenses. Initial contact with the entity resulted in the first containment unit to turn on one another after the entity took offense at their "disrespect", resulting in the death of several locals and containment team personnel. The entity was finally contained after promises of new "faithful followers", after which the creature followed the task force of it's own free will.

Extra Info: Keeps a book written in an unknown language, with a odd shifting symbol on the cover
