A tsunami being repelled by a village with the Repel Water ability
Repel Water is a power that allows the player to save a village from atsunami or high water levels. This happens when a native is sent to a passage-like structure and then retrieves the ability, taking it to its village. From then on, any tsunamis will be repelled away from the village.
Multiple villages can be saved by this when the same native travels to every village and passes on the knowledge.Natives repel water by using their instruments to produce long horn tones with the company of drums
