What I remember about the rise of the Emu Empire is… is how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Emu Wars, the Emu Legion was discreetly transferred back to Sydney. It was a silent trip; we all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Sydney, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Sydney Opera House. Not a word."
