Suo Yu Bay is not a natural harbor.
At least in ancient times, it was far from the prosperity it enjoys now.
Two narrow peninsulas, resembling the sharp fangs of a barracuda, extend from the coast, forming a perfect arc that nearly meets at the end, leaving a relatively narrow entrance to the vast sea.
This creates a deep and smooth open sea area within Suo Yu Bay, enough to anchor a large number of ships.
However, as if in a cruel jest by the creator, a natural trap is buried within this gift.
At the junction of those two barracuda fang-like peninsulas, is the demarcation line between the calm bay and the turbulent outer sea, located at the sole entrance.
There is a dense array of deadly reefs and dark currents.
Even the most experienced captains cannot easily navigate this area safely.
As a result, for a long time, despite the bay's advantageous natural environment, only a few reclusive fishfolk, or scattered Fishman Tribes, resided here.
Until countless years ago.
