Name
Philip H
Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
At its most visible point it was very wide and if I recall correctly bright blue in the middle and darker on the sides. The shape vaguely resembled that of a stingray from a bottom for lack of a better comparison. A little bigger than the full moon would be.
