Historias de Datu

Will Mara follow her destiny or her heart?

"Tanga na ba ako kung pipiliin ko ang puso ko kahit masakit at bawal?" Love Joy Enriquez, isang doktor na never pang nagkaroon jowa. Never been touched, never been kissed. Kabaligtaran ng pangalan niya ang status ng lovelife niya. Isang araw, napagdesiyunan niyang magbakasyon kasama ang mga kaibigan. Sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon, napadpad siya sa panahon kung saan hindi pa ipinapanganak si Rizal. Can she survive it if she doesn't have any idea about that era, especially if there is a man who loves to stare at her? Credits to the rightful owner of the image in the book cover.

Death Waits or The Tale of Jaramarana Everyone knows that you can't bargain with Death. For Sidapa, the god of the Veil of Vijayas, is absolute. He is the true constant of life and the inevitable end of all journey. But can one run from the God of Death? The tale you're about to read is all set in the pre-colonial Philippines, in the land of Vijayas where all my Bagani Saga tales like THE SONGS OF STRIFE and TALES OF TIKUM KADLUM are set. This short story is inspired from a shorter tale I once read a long time ago. This, I guess, is my version of it? Hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed writing it and do leave a comment behind!
