Cornering a Clue

Creating a new spectral template, I forwarded the examples into the electron network with a destination set to be the external sensor electrons from the sensitive group. Those that choose, were welcomed to experiment with patterns in the newly discovered upper band. It was here that perhaps more interesting networks could be located for exploration and study. Within moments, a tracking vector was transmitted. Peter had been detected and was being tracked.

The range of these frequencies was strangely longer than the other signals that I had been interacting with. Detectors were working well, immune from the noise and overlap from the other signals. While the amplitude was low, the background was so quiet that the whispering signal was easily detected and tracked. Getting into the signal was another matter.

The template that I had forwarded was fairly wide, and overlapped a number of short distance local channels that were interspersed with network activity. It was possible that the signal that I was detecting was the internal operation of Peter's network. As I swept the sequence, looking to see if I could confirm the reception from the outwards, I was being bombarded by local noise that did not seem to affect the outwardly sensative pingers. Sweeping onward, I then found a series of shifting peaks emanating from within the central network. There was only one pattern that matched this spread-out locality, and it was that of the ineffable whorl.
