White Children Rescued from Flooded Camp by Kooyang Tale
A historic account details Kooyang guiding a flooded table and rescuing two white children named John and Heather after their family fled to a new site. Darker locals helped shelter the children, and a bond formed between white settlers and the Bul people. Kooyang saved the sister Diowelf and brother John, soon afterward reuniting them with their mother and father amid widespread flood chaos. The event ends with Kooyang’s long remembered bravery and a lasting friendship between communities.
