SCP-2317

SCP-2317 is a Apollyon-classifed SCP.

Description
SCP-2317 is a door to another dimension. This dimension is an endless salt pan that houses a 600,000 foot tall obese humanoid known as The ████, Devourer of Worlds, an ancient entity that could possibly end all of existence if not contained by a series of massive, irreplacable chains keeping it tied down. However, the chains' durability wither by the minute, and it's predicted that in the next thirty years, the creature will escape into our dimension and there's nothing the Foundation can do about it. SCP-2317 is quite possibly the ultimately most dangerous SCP ever documented by the Foundation. SPC 2317 is not just the beast people know it as but a totally different dimension with different creatures excluding the one people known as "The Scarlet King" or Entity. or The Devourer of Worlds.

Its designation and possible identity as the Scarlet King is a reference to SCP-231-7, another potentially catastrophic SCP connected to the Scarlet King. Although unlike 231-1, 2317's horror stems from knowing too much rather than too little.

The one and only tactic the Foundation has to stopping the threat is resorting to religious rituals, although it is eventually admitted these will be completely ineffective and only exist to give the ignorant hope.

That said, a side story from Dr. Clef theorizes that a simple artillery strike would be able to deal with it, for it had only battled humans long before any semblance of modern weaponry was created.
