The Daghwa-Igdø are three closely related groups: the Sun-Daghwa and East-Daghwa on the banks of Lake Tcagu, and the Igdø at the mouth of the Shiangian River. The Daghwa-Igdø are small, but ancient: they have been there long before anyone could write of them, and only their oldest tales hint at their journey to the cold southern lands. Unlike most southern peoples, the Daghwa-Igdø are descended from the first undenau, the first peoples to set foot on Uanlikri. Daghwa-Igdø are mostly sedentary, spread out over the lanscape in small villages where they farm and raise wagwacguk cattle. In the winter, hunting, fishing, and trade with the Maa-Ougbig and Xigdat is essential to their survival.
Of all their ressources, the Daghwa-Igdø are most dependant on their cattle, the wagwacguk. Wagwacguk are bulky, heavily feathered ceratopsians among the most cold hardy of Uanlikri's animals. Domestic wagwacguk are at the center of Daghwa-Igdø subsistance: they provide them with meat, horn, leather, down feathers, feather pelts and most important of all, blood. Wagwacguk are only slaughtered in the fall: the rest of the year, they are bloodlet regularly, and their blood is the cornerstone of Daghwa-Igdø cuisine.
