A two-headed dinosaur haunts the shallows at high tide. 2 There's an old trail leading from Ahoyhoy to Dangwaru, high up on the mountainside. Tortles built the Typhoon Palace a century ago for the survivors of a shipwreck, but it's been abandoned for years. Evil spirits now watch over the palace, which is said to be full of treasure.
