In today's psionic knowledge of a purge, the length of time that a purge takes to complete can be as short as two weeks, as long as two years, and has an average completion time anywhere between 9-12 months. Before experiment #13 began, the shortest recorded time of a purge was about 34 days. This changed with Subject #13, later dubbed as (“Two Week Girl”).11Please respect copyright.PENANAXiLkAdlugf

In this instance of the purge, which took place during the beginning of the Cold War era, #13 was purged by designation AG-13. Since the same people involved in sending a purge are not able to monitor their target any time after a purge is sent, the two weeks after that time were calm. After this point however, the target and the node of AG13 became telepathically linked, in what became known as the shortest purge in Altiri history. However, this naturally came with heavy costs, burdensome to #13 and her now fragile state of mind.11Please respect copyright.PENANAhqY9AQCthM

The purge injects data and information during its phases of cycling over time, but this means, if it completes faster, all of its effects become amplified, and it means that more information is crammed into a shorter span of time. Purges were never designed to complete this quickly, and there is no way to control how long a purge should take when launched. #13 sadly suffered from may psychological disorders that were brought on by the intensity of this specific purge. The very connection that was initially established was pushed into a limited state, the human mind so out of sorts that information in the telepathic field became paradoxical and made less sense. In summary and simpler terms, this specific purge broke #13's mind.11Please respect copyright.PENANAj5EyQvA5a7

The instant panic involved got swift attention from the Royal Scryers, who made special exception to help and get involved with this purge process even if it meant risking identity leak (which was later limited). Unfortunately for the two nodes, #13 was not able to make a proper recovery from her montrum. The specific montrum that was brought on by her purge was the one factor that caused the biggest problem. The swift completion of this purge somehow amplified and intensified her montrum ten times stronger than it should have been (and since montrums involve a mental obsession that merges with a personal certainty principle, this meant her literal reality was in flux).11Please respect copyright.PENANAdVLpoFHuq4

#13 spend a long time in a psychological institution under investigation, and despite being taught how, did not invoke additional telepathic communications with her node (AG13, who were all distraught at what had happened). Not only had this purge experiment failed due to unforeseen randomness, the intense psychological problems it pushed onto the subject proved that these purges, while not designed to be of any physical harm, could still bring harm to people in a myriad of methods. AG13 never recovered from the guilt in what they had done, and about a few months after, all of the scryers who had eyes on #13 lost track of her position, never to see or hear from her again.11Please respect copyright.PENANABT5zY9iR1I

Consequently, the AVPSI did manage to ascertain new information pertaining to psionics from this very experiment. They learned ~ that the mental effects of a montrum, be it instigated by a purge or occurring naturally, amplifies psionic potential. Montrum, when started by a purge, is at least thirty times more powerful and forceful than when a montrum occurs naturally in a human, thus, the purge generates a highly amplified version of a psychological montrum. {Keep in mind that as it pertained to #13, this montrum was accidentally amplified ten times over, leading to a total power amplification of 30,000%, rather than 3,000%}. During the second phase of the purge, which generates and sustains this powerful montrum, the effects of the very same purge and all psionic potential greatly increase over time.11Please respect copyright.PENANAAuc3n7l9nD

It was known well in advance that this second stage of a purge was vital to the success of any purge, but it was never known why montrums were so important, until this incident occurred, stirring the minds of those who better understood how montrums actually function. Psionic ability relies on a number of factors, some of them mental rather than physical, and of these factors involves an unwavering level of confidence in instance personal reality to achieve its trigger {confidence in invoking an ability}. This kind of confidence is right on the boarder of the brain's ability to analyze and separate reality from personal fantasy, even with this confidence value present. It is theorized that this is the very nature and role of a montrum as it pertains to a purge; it uses a psychological warping that is very close to the same action of confusing a person's actual reality with what should and should not be real.11Please respect copyright.PENANAqmW6Szajh9

Since #13's montrum was too powerful, this value was far exceeded, and done so during the information impulse phase of the purge. Many speculate that what #13 went through was essentially the same symptom of living in an alternate reality dreamt up and inspired by montrums of her purge, and set in such a strong state that she was perpetually trapped in this alternate reality. This also opens an interesting question for others. If a montrum can be enforced on another individual safely, and without a purge, it should mean that their psionic potential would dramatically increase. However, there have not been any new developments in creating an alternate process from the psionic purge.
