Watchful Eyes

"You can feel their eyes on you, but can't yet see them."As one gains Glimpses of Understanding, putting together three pieces of the puzzling world around them unlocks a piece of eldritch knowledge. The secret you hold thereafter, whether you choose to delve into it or not, unconsciously affects your mind, bringing with it madness and the attention of other beings; this level of attention will hereafter be referred to as Watchful Eyes.

One Watchful Eye:
You can perceive the parts of their reality that overlap most closely with your own limited understanding of the world. You are now able to see the Aberrations and their kin.

Two Watchful Eyes:
Other parts of reality can feel your presence, and will begin to perceive you back. Certain harmless aberrations will acknowledge your presence.

Three Watchful Eyes:
That which lays hidden begins to reveal itself. The mind accepts what it once discarded, the senses picking up the subtleties that once went unnoticed. The full brightness of the stars above becomes apparent, and certain harmless aberrations will track your movement when you pass by. More aggressive entities may even seek you out...

Four Watchful Eyes:
(A bit more of the reality of this place is revealed; the vegetable seller has new stock for you. Either being able to sense the aberrations that are drawn to you before they arrive, or being able to sense their presence in general, not sure? The Shadow Folk appear to be trying to say something to you, but you can't hear any sound...)

Five Watchful Eyes:
(The Shadow Folk are assuredly saying something, but you can only hear a hissing and cannot make out distinct words. The daytime sky has revealed itself to you, much to your regret)

Six Watchful Eyes:
(You can see more of that which is hidden. Ghastly sights unveil themselves in the skies above civilization, though how long they have been there you do not know. The Shadow Folk can, and do, speak to you as you walk by. Your patron star burns in the sky even during the day.)
