Parasite:
A leaked photo from a presumed unpublished research paper (circa 2001) captioned "Figure 4. A live individual of N. rhombopteryx with three large L. fluviatilis attached to its body. The animal appears to have sustained injuries from a boat collision which attracted the lamprey."
The Curse:
"This recently uncovered photograph (circa 1920) may have been the last ever taken by local 'nature enthusiast' Bernard Sanderson before his mysterious disappearance. His small steamboat was found floating on the loch with no one at the helm..."
Experiment:
"In 2021 a team of researchers used Side-scan sonar imaging to survey the floor of the loch. One particular image (previously unpublished) shows a large, unidentified object moving close to the loch floor with an estimated length of 14 metres"
Infection:
A mystery carcass found on the shore of the loch in 1968. The official report states that it belonged to "that of a Grey Seal which had succumbed to a novel infection, disfiguring and bloating the body". It was promptly burned "to prevent the spread of the disease".
Folklore:
"An etching from the early 1500's depicting the old folk tale of the village elder who sacrificed his first-born son to 'The Great Loch Serpent' by throwing him into the water. This act of appeasement prevented the beast from flooding the entire valley and kingdom."
