Dim Gate is a Location in Mortal Shell. The inscrutable geometry belies the architect's will. Wrought from obsidianite, impossible fragments float untethered from reality. Each step beneath the fractured vista reveals the sublime truth of madness.

On the platform below the two teleporters. (the one with the grates) there is a ledge on the right side (if ascending far if descending) walk out onto the ledge and you will see a teleporter below. Inside the Chest, I found a baguette and a glimpse of disdain
Has anyone figured out how to get the chest/teleporter at the very top of the area?
There is an item that is technically in the Eternal Narthex but only becomes visible once you reach the Dim Gate. It can be seen from 2 locations, the first being: go down the stairs 1 level from Dim Gate to Eternal Narthex, turn left towards the teleporter near the Bronze Bell then look up. A teleporter and item can be seen. It can be viewed better once you progress further through the Dim Gate, in the room with the Lever that gives you a Glimpse of Disdain. Continue to the left-hand window at the end of the room and look down (not straight down) and you can see the mentioned teleporter and item.
Anyone know how to reach these? I have played this game for many hours and only just noticed this.
