In previous blogs I’ve told you about the history of the pearl as an energy source from Atlantis that held the balance between land and sea. Research I conducted at the Hall of Records revealed that part of the power of the pearl was its ability to control the dark forces of Mergor, the giant and many-tentacled beast of the ocean..

Generations of seafarers have spoken of this terrifying beast of the deep, capable of swallowing ships and sinking tracts of land. Drake spoke of close encounters with the monster and Alfred Tennyson wrote a sonnet about a kraken creature as early as 1830:
Below the thunders of the upper deep;
Far far beneath in the abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless, uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth: faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides; above him swell
Huge sponges of millennial growth and height;
And far away into the sickly light,
From many a wondrous grot and secret cell
Unnumber’d and enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for ages, and will lie
Battening upon huge seaworms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall heat the deep;
Then once by man and angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and on the surface die.
Nancy Astor had no idea that separating the pearl from the armillary sphere during the Second World War would deactivate its powers, but the consequence was to unsettle the balance between land and sea and unleash the dark forces of the ocean. Signs of Mergor’s increased influence are everywhere once you start looking..
I began my research into the pearl – now known as the Pearl of Plymouth – in 2001 and have been drawing links between the dormancy of the pearl and the ascent of Mergor since then. The longer the pearl is dormant the stronger Mergor becomes..
The first, and most obvious sign is rising sea levels, which show no sign of abating. The faster sea levels rise, the more of the planet Mergor can claim. Each time the ocean expands its dimensions, Mergor expands in size too…
There are also many examples of strange and unexplained incidents around the coast and at sea that can be linked to the ascent of Mergor:
* It went unreported but just last month there was chaos at Whitsand Bay when a sinkhole suddenly emerged on the beach..
* Just a couple of weeks back, Plymouth Marine Lab tweeted news of this mystery marine beast, the spawn of Mergor:

The spawn of Mergor
* Remember the hundreds of sea birds that washed up dead along our coastlines this year? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-22143053 The cause remained a mystery in the news..
* In 2010, there were warnings of swarms of venomous jellyfish that have been repeated again this summer: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/earthnews/7563028/Swarms-of-venomous-jellyfish-move-towards-British-waters.html Many put it down to rising sea temperatures, but there could be even more to it than that.. Especially with the increasing documentation on ‘immortal jellyfish’ taking over the ocean: http://news.nationalgeographic.co.uk/news/2009/01/090130-immortal-jellyfish-swarm.html
These are just some of the incidents I’ve documented, there are many more which I will link to here on the blog. The increased intensity of these strange maritime events in the past few years make it even more essential that the pearl is found…
