" '[The Line] acts as a Conduit for what we call Sha, or, as they say in Spanish California, Bad Energy. Imagine a Wind, a truly ill wind, bringing failure, poverty, disgrace, betrayal--every kind of bad luck there is--all blowing through, night and day, with many times the force of the worst storm you were ever in. . . .
" 'Ev'rywhere else on earth, Boundaries follow Nature--coast-lines, ridge-tops, river-banks--so honoring the Dragon or Sha within, from which Land-Scape ever takes its form.' "
