They tried to control their population by keeping them weak and hungry. Then came the crash that spread all sorts of dust, powder, and tiny little floaty seeds all over the place. The soil was suddenly extremely rich, instead of polluted, the parasites and fungi that were harmful to people died out quickly, and a surprisingly large variety of small, seemingly ordinary, plants, began to spread swiftly. -- Anon Guest
The people on the northern islands actually saw the invader shot down. Footage was all over the networks for five days, until another crisis came that was more spectacular. People were told to avoid the "air flotsam" that poured out of the vessel as it streaked across the sky. It was obviously poison, an infestation, or some kind of bioweapon.
They sent troops to burn all the flock they could reach, and held a big parade to honour those heroes.
The crisis declared over, the whole world got back to normal. The sacred economy had to keep flowing. Which meant that the workers had to go to their hazardous factories on the dangerous roads whilst breathing polluted air and taking in toxic sustenance. But the invader's windblown fluff was too dangerous.
