CELESTIAL OBSERVATION LOG
Subject: Flickering of the False Stars – Kelen Belt Anomaly
Author: Dr. Sena Vol-Tiren
Designation: Independent Tier-C Observatory, Varn Axis
Date of Submission: Spiral Day 0T0L0X1.22
Recipient: Celestial Observation Union (Distributed Network Protocol 3-Z)
Submitted for peer review and emergency pattern mapping.
During routine photometric surveying of the Kelen Belt sector, I detected irregular flickering from multiple stellar bodies. The initial dataset included 142 stars across the inner and outer sweep, all previously classified as stable burn types. The flickers occurred non-randomly, recurring in intervals suggestive of deliberate timing - initially assumed to be magnetic field anomalies or gravitational lensing effects.
Upon further decoding using expired Prime Spiral Ordinals, the flickers were found to form structured sequences. Over a complete mapping cycle, these sequences produced five consistent harmonic clusters. Each cluster, when converted into linear notation per the Cadrelian Fractal Grid, rendered the name LYRAX.
The resonance of the signal is not linguistic but intentional. This pattern is visible across at least three parsecs and appears to be transmitting outward in concentric temporal phases.
Key anomaly of focus: Star K-BRAE-12, commonly known as the Red Lantern. This star, a red giant, demonstrated a complete spectral shift to a blue signature over the span of 0.3 rotation cycles. There was no pre-nova activity. The star did not collapse or flare. It simply changed. All background radiation ceased. Concentric pulses formed around it in the dark, faintly reflective, undetectable by standard echo metrics.
This event occurred in direct temporal alignment with what is now identified as the Escape Event of Lyrax from Carceron.
I was forced to access the Forbidden Chord Archive for harmonic matching. The resulting sequence mirrored the Oath of Containment's substructure once used in Tribunal-era security rites. This cannot be coincidence. The stars are not decaying. They are signaling. They are blinking in acknowledgment.
This is not a warning.
This is a recognition.
I have shut down my observatory uplink. I am submitting this through direct-node terminal only. The replication subroutines have been wiped. I will not look again.
This is my final contribution to the Union.
I resign all scientific commission and recuse myself from further observational duties.
Forgive my curiosity.
