Frozen Plasma Surprise

The whorl was unusually active, spreading through random time and then creating a void in which random time operated without severe interference. There were still recurring peaks in whorlic frequencies, but the amplitude was greatly attenuated and spread across more of the spectrum. At first, I thought it was part of the session, but after repeating across several sequential random time sessions, I began to realize that the increased external interference was more pervasive.

There were times when the interference from the outside was lower and less-peaky, but these were brief interludes. Random time remained unaffected, and the central network showed no signs of modification due to these interferences. During a 'round the perimeter survey, It was astonishing to see that the whorl itself was capable of muting and spreading the external pulses. Without such a shielding action, random time might be fraught with interference.

From the outer edge of the whorl's shield envelope, I was able to get a better image of the incoming pulses. The modulated noise waveforms were edgy and harsh, designed to exceed the bandwidth of any channel. As they propagated through the shield zone, the component frequencies split and deviated. The only thing comparable in all of my experience was the edge of the plasma that started this whole odyssey.
