The Entire City That Was Eaten

August 6, 2024

Human history is a tapestry woven with extraordinary moments of triumph and equally, if not more, harrowing atrocities. While some of these events are born out of sheer desperation, many others are acts of calculated brutality. Over a millennium ago, East Asia witnessed a nation-defining event that encapsulated both these extremes—a story that remains as horrifying today as it was then.

This event, a cornerstone in the annals of history, is a grim reminder of the darker side of human nature. The narrative you are about to hear, though brief and understated, delves into deeply unsettling occurrences. Viewer discretion is strongly advised, as the content, though fleeting, is profoundly disturbing. This is that story.
