== Shrine to Suitengu ==
A Shrine to Suitengu, the fortune of the sea, was situated on a point overlooking the entrance to the Bay of Thunder. It would often be crowded with sailors praying for a protection from the fortune before putting out to sea. It was also the location of a ritual unique to Broken Wave City; the purification of sea water into fresh drinking water by Moshi Shugenja would result in leftover salt, which would be brought here and poured back into the sea once a week. The elaborate ceremony was done as a thanks to the fortune for the water which had been taken from his realm. Strongholds of the Empire, p. 16
