 also, yeah, Revelation also talks about two things, the field of the saints and the blessed city, and the dragon tries to attack it but fails

remembering this also ... the ancient greeks (and revelation text is written in ancient greek) called these islands the "blessed islands" and i searched around to find some reference like "campo de santos" but no... there is a book with this title too, that recently became very popular, and the reference is related to revelation and the story is about weaponised immigration, funny enough

and "dragons" i'm starting to strongly connect them with meteors on low trajectories blazing through the sky, like the one that passed over Russia back in 2013, if you ever saw the video, omg wow
