The information is taken from a book published in 1608 in the city of Troyes, which describes this event. The brochure is called: "Amazing events observed in Italy in August 1608"

At the beginning of August 1608, the inhabitants of the Italian city of Genoa were enjoying the beautiful summer weather and a lot of people were resting on the coast when incredible events suddenly began to happen. Three elongated and oval-shaped flying objects appeared in the sky above the sea, which approached and hovered on the fortifications of the coastal fortress.

Then all three objects sank to the very surface of the water near the shore and the water below them began to boil, raising yellow-orange steam. Moreover, according to eyewitnesses, all this action was accompanied by a terrifying roar. A whole crowd gathered on the embankment watching what was happening.

The flying machines, shrouded in clouds of yellow steam, continued to hang over the water, when two humanoid figures dressed in strange red costumes appeared from one ship, and another alien looked like a woman but was covered with shiny scales, the color of silver and with a head like a dragon.

The figures in red suits had huge round heads on which there was nothing but two large round holes similar to shiny eyes. Their figure was strange, their hands stuck out in different directions and, according to eyewitnesses, looked like scales from afar.

These strange aliens held in their hands some long tubes similar to snakes, as they wriggled and went from the hands to the place where a person's navel is located, and then, holding the tubes vertically, they jumped into the water and swam around their ships for several hours, then sinking under the water, then rising to the surface.

Ladies fainted, many of the residents rushed to the church to offer prayers to the Lord, and the soldiers stationed in the fortress received the command to open fire from cannons at the devilish creatures. The fortress artillery fired 800 shots at the uninvited guests, but they did not even pay attention to the roar of the guns and continued to float near their ships, and the cannon balls did not cause any harm to the aliens or their ships.

At the same time, they absolutely ignored the crowd of locals gathered on the shore, and then got out of the water and climbed into their flying machines, which then took off into the air, quickly picked up speed and disappeared on the horizon. Flying objects were observed in Marseille and even Nice. All this happened on August 5, 1608.

The townspeople fell into ecstasy after what they saw, many prophesied the end of the world and people massively made processions, offering prayers. And on August 15, the flying ships returned.

The same three flying ships appeared above the sea, dragging six other ships that were engulfed in fire and looked like dragons. All this flying armada approached Genoa and their flight was accompanied by terrifying sounds from which the earth and mountains trembled. The ships stopped and one began to approach the shore.

The crowd of townspeople gathered near the shore panicked and rushed to run. Several people were trampled in the crush, several ladies died of fright, and flying ships flew along the coast three times. Cannons were fired at them again, but they did not cause any harm to the flying ships, and they, in turn, did not pay any attention to the shooting and did not receive any damage.

Then the entire armada of flying ships with a terrifying roar at high speed departed in an easterly direction. A few days later, one of these flying ships appeared over the fishing village of Martigousse, which was located near Nice. The ship flew over the village for several hours, then descended and two figures in red suits came out of it, who again did something in the water under their hovering ship.

After all these events, from the coast of Genoa to Provence, a bloody rain began to pour from the sky, everything was flooded with a bloody rain, which horrified residents. All the trees turned red, and in Toulon even all the buildings turned red. Blood stained the roofs, walls of houses and even the church.

Churches were crowded with worshippers and prayer services were held for the deliverance of the people from terrible signs. On August 18 and August 20, the bloody rains continued. The townspeople were afraid to go out and hid in their homes.

The entire coast from Nice to Marseille was flooded with streams of bloody rain, which caused a real flood on the streets of cities.

On August 20, two flying humanoid figures appeared in the sky over the city of Martig, holding weapons and shields in their hands. Then they began to fight with their weapons and beat their shields with them, all this was accompanied by a roar and terrible sounds that turned the inhabitants of the city into a stampede.

The battle of two flying people lasted for about an hour, and then they scattered in different directions, but after some time they returned and continued the battle, which lasted two hours. There was no winner in the battle and the flying people scattered in different directions.

On August 22, the same two flying people appeared again. This time they got down on the ground and started fighting.

On August 23, the same aliens fought a battle sitting on some creatures similar to horses.

On August 24, they appeared in some iron carts, sitting inside them, they fought again. One of the fortresses fired a shot and there was a roar like a cannon shot, everything around swayed and was enveloped in smoke. Everything was covered with black clouds, which covered everything around and the smell of sulfur spread around, and when the clouds dispersed, people did not see either the fighting warriors or their iron fortress carts.

All these events had an indelible effect on people who considered it a sign that they had angered God and the Apocalypse was coming soon. The events that took place were written in two manuscripts that have survived to our times.

Relato de las terribles señales que aparecieron sobre el mar de Genova a principios de agosto de 1608.

Las maravillas que vemos son probablemente mensajes y avisos celestiales que nos advierten de los males que nos acontecen, y que aparentemente, podemos remediarlos con nuestras oraciones y ayunos, para apaciguar la ira del gran Dios, al que ofendemos cada día. Los romanos cuando veían estas maravillas también  hacían sacrificios a sus dioses para apaciguar sus cóleras y adorarlos. Nosotros que somos cristianos introducidos en una mejor escuela que presentamos nuestros sagrados y contraídos corazones arrepentidos, pedimos  humildemente al todopoderoso que nos perdone nuestros pecados, queriendo apaciguar su ira justa, y que las desgracias que la justicia se desvíen y sean expulsadas  de nosotros por su santa misericordia

A principios de agosto del 1608 en el mar de Génova, se observaron los signos más horribles que se han hablado o escrito en las memorias de un hombre. Algunos tenían apariencia humana con los brazos cubiertos de escamas y sosteniendo en sus manos, cada uno, dos horribles serpientes voladoras, que saliendo desde el ombligo, se  enrollaban en sus brazos. Ellos salían del mar y lanzaban gritos horribles y espantosos, y a veces se sumergían y sobresalían en otros lugares más alejados, soltando gritos tan terribles que muchos enfermaban del miedo que tenían. Unos parecían mujeres, otros tenían cuerpos de apariencia humana, cubiertos de escamas, cuya cabeza era como la de un dragón. Después del primer día de cada mes se suele ver el gran temor que tienen todos los genoveses. El señorío hizo sacar los cañones para tratar de sacarlos del lugar, y les costó cerca de 800 armas de fuego, pero en vano, porque en absoluto se asustaban. Las iglesias se reunieron y buscaron un remedio definitivo, se hicieron numerosas procesiones y se ordenó el ayuno. Los buenos Padres Capuchinos ordenaron 40 horas en un intento de aplacar la ira de Dios.

El 15 de agosto apareció en el puerto marítimo de Genovés tres carros tirados por seis figuras  de fuego con semblanza de dragón.  Estos carros caminaban  en direcciones opuestas , uno al otro, y fueron guiados por las señales que les dictaban  sus serpientes. 

Continuando con sus gritos horrendos,  se acercaron lo suficientemente a Génova, a fin de que el público, o por lo menos la mayor parte, huyera aterrorizado, temiendo los efectos de tal prodigio, pero después de pasar  tres veces a lo largo de puerto y después de haber lanzado tan poderosos gritos que  resonaban en las montañas de los alrededores, todos ellos se perdieron  en ese mar, y desde entonces nadie ha vuelto a verlos  ni conoce alguna noticia de ellos.

Esto hace un gran daño a los Genoveses, algunos están muertos de miedo, como el hijo del Señor Gasparino Loro, o Bagatelo del hermano del señor Antonio. Varias mujeres también se vieron afectadas y tras tener esos temores murieron. Desde que se cantó el Te Deum, todos  han desaparecido.

Desde la costa de Niza a todo el lado de la Provenza, tanto en el mar como en la tierra, se vio caer una lluvia de sangre manchando de rojo las hojas y los árboles frutales. En Toulon, la mayoría de las casas estaban llenas de manchas...

Dicha sangre, en el techo y el suelo de la iglesia parroquial de ese lugar en la salida de misa fue vista caer como genuina sangre pura y natural.

El 18 de agosto  en Reillane, todo el pueblo vio la lluvia de sangre y nadie salió de su casa por temor a ser manchado, dijeron que goteaban los techos, a la caída directa de la lluvia.  En Lambesc, el 20 de agosto, llovió tal cantidad de sangre  que corrió a lo largo de las calles, ellos pensaban que habían muerto en su ciudad una gran multitud de personas. En definitiva a lo largo de la costa de Niza a Marsella, llovió sangre durante  varios días. Prodigios ciertamente no sin predecir grandes efectos.

Otras cosas dignas de memoria también llegaron casi al mismo tiempo en la ciudad de Las Martigues. El 22 de agosto, dos hombres aparecieron en el aire, con cada mano en armas y escudos y lucha para que asustaran a los espectadores y después de haber luchado durante mucho tiempo, descansaron un rato    comenzaron de nuevo para luchar durante   2 horas.

El 20 de agosto, lucharon a pie y discutían hasta el punto de que parecía que los herreros golpeando sobre el yunque. Al día siguiente fueron a caballo , y los caballos  se agitaban como soldados.A continuación, se peleaban por considerar que uno u otro se calyera. Al día siguiente, algunos dijeron que cada uno de ellos había tomado una boulevert, o fortaleza, y después de bastante buena figura frente a la otra hubo un sonido como disparos de un cañón, tan terrible que los testigos pensaron que era el fin del mundo, y luego el ruido  continuó durante  unas  7 horas, de repente, una nube espesa apareció en el cielo y durante dos horas no se vio mas que la nube y la niebla negra  y sintieron un gran olor a salitre cuando se purificó el aire no había nada de esas fantasías extravagantes.

Estos maravillosos milagros han tocado las almas de muchos cristianos que consideran las maravillas de nuestro gran Dios y sabiendo que solo el es potente y que con su bondad infinita nos quiere advertir, antes de enviarnos el castigo que nos merecemos , algunos somos hechos  religiosos, otros  hacen penitencia para apaciguar la ira de Dios. Para que el Espíritu Santo nos ayude en nuestra buena voluntad.

Que así sea.
