Interacting with the icon will transport you to a dark room, with seemingly nowhere to go. You might think that this is some sort of a bug, or that your game has softlocked. But that’s actually not the case. You are now supposed to return to the main menu and start a new game.

But don’t worry – this will not erase your progress. In fact, it should start the second act of the game, which significantly changes the main gameplay loop. And just a heads up – this is not the last time the game will expect you to do something weird to progress, so don’t be afraid to experiment, even with things that are not part of the game in other titles.
