Week 4: History Plus Nerd Trope
Now unless youre a historian in Australia not many people know about the Great Emu War held in 1932. Or so this is what they chose to label it to the public. You see the rumors of Australia having the deadliest animals on earth is absolutely true theres no denying it. However what they choose to keep from you is the amount of unexplainable other wordly being that escape the gates of hell via Australia.
The vast farming land wasnt being piliaged by some annoying flightless birds it was something far worse, dracoliches. Soldiers who bravely fought in World War I were coming home to settle down and restart their lives but they never expected to see the dracolich migration cross these newly inhabited lands. It wasnt until crops were ready to harvest that the first one appear, using its giant razor sharp talons to uproot the vegetation an eating it as a salad before consuming the farmers who lived there. After the first one more stormed in and the farmers who were able to escaped were almost too traumatized to speak of the event.
Troops lead by Sir George Pearce rallied to war yet again with a far worse enemy than those of WWI. They spent months trying to take back land while losing several hundred soldiers, their deaths covered up by the Australian government in order to not cause a panic to the public. You may ask "how exactly does one kill an undead dragon? " the answer to that is simply "you dont". The best that mortals could do was sacrifice lives in order to deter the foul beasts away from cities and hope they go back to whatever realm they came from.
