Philippine mythology is the body of myths, tales, and superstitions held by Filipinos, mostly originating from beliefs held during the pre-Hispanic era. Some of these beliefs stem from pre-Christian religion that was specially influenced by the Hinduism and were regarded by the Spanish as "myth" and "superstition" in an effort to de-legitimize precolonial faith by replacing those native beliefs with colonial Catholic Christian myths and superstitions. Today, some of these precolonial beliefs are still held by Filipinos, especially in the provinces. Filipino myth is incorporated from various sources, having similarities with Indonesian and Malay myths, as well as Christian traditions, such as the notion of Heaven (kaluwalhatian, kalangitan, kamurawayan), Hell (impiyerno, kasamaan), and the human soul (kaluluwa). Filipino mythology attempts to explain the nature of the world through the lives and actions of gods, goddesses, heroes, and mythological creatures. A majority of these myths were passed on through oral tradition. - This Book contains : - the creation myth - list of deities - list of creatures - the story of Lapu-Lapu - 2018 -Completed-

Thrown into a brutal world of war and magic, Gregor and Peter quickly realize that survival means more than just fighting-it means adapting. With no allies and no way home, they must use their knowledge of strategy, engineering, and warfare to carve out a place in a land where strength rules all. But their innovations spark fear and hostility. Kings see them as a threat, mages brand them heretics, and warlords seek to claim their knowledge for themselves. Hunted, outnumbered, and forced into impossible choices, the brothers must decide: Will they bend the knee, flee into the shadows, or build an empire of their own? Will their Austrian heritage bring disaster or strength? Will their inventions help people or bring a new disaster? This is an Isekai I thought about. I hope you like it. It's also my first own story and not a fanfic
