I was reading Shadows of Asia last night and i was really interested in the Yakut part.
To sum up for those that didnt read it, or dont recal that part, it seems that Siberia declared independance from Russia with the help of Shapeshifters and more importantly of a Free Spirit of massive power.
After independance, they realised the price they had to pay : the Shapeshifters are running the dance now and any who opposes them dissapear. Most ignore everything about the spirit, but she is the power behind the shapeshifters.
That's for the Yakut part.

Regarding Tunguska, famous "Alien Crash Site" the shadow posters make interesting comments : the crash is not an UFO, but some "device" that was sent in space thousands of years ago, and that crashed back. Another poster says it was actualy some kind of spirit that was imprisoned and sent away.
In those posts there is no link between the spirit ruling yakut and that imprisoned spirit sent in space.

So, any of you have more information regarding this story ? any supposition to what could be that spirit ? (the one ruling yakut and the one imprisoned).
