stgeorge User ID: 117381 ![]() 07/15/2006 03:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It was long known as a Water Demon,but has nothing to do with Satanism.I think Loch Ness is a sacred site. In the book "Search at Loch Ness" they found a series of submerged stone rings,which must have been incredibly ancient to have been submerged over time. The Nature Spirit that visits me,Pokey,obligingly showed me that he can appear in that shape as well.I was terrified at the thing even though it was being playful.And do not look upon it for too long. The is a photo of a black mass materializing on a beach.Gives you an idea. |
