Wongeup

Wongeup is a town in northern Huon Sa, located on the northern coast. It boasts the title of Huon Sa's northernmost settlement, and is connected by road to Wonbak, Ikwang and Jonglyo.
Wongeup retains many customs left over from the Jagseum Boat Culture; this has led experts to believe the Boat Culture migrated to the mainland during the Great Gap, either founding Wongeup or mingling and intermarrying with the original inhabitants.
One of these customs is a sacrifice to the fertility gods Chiang-Rai and Fueng-Li; this involves drawing complex patterns in the sand of the village's beaches and letting coloured dyes flow down the ruts and into the sea. This gives the beaches a fantastic colour for several days and also makes the sea appear to have an oil slick on its surface. Originally this custom was carried out with blood, but the practice was outlawed shortly after the are came under Huon control, so the villagers compromised.
