  2. Ah, we've both picked up on the Mary Magdalene deceit and the taming of the lion. I wonder if the rumours of Mary's children will ever be confirmed.

    1. Not by the Vatican. Will have to be by historians continuing their work. Proof of the bloodline I suppose, if that's even possible.

  6. Thank you all for visiting and commenting. Guess the lion wins ;-)) Wabi, yeah, what's up with that? But the power Cybele had. Awesome. What goes around comes around.
