Filipinomythology Stories

Sinta has always believed in simple things. Deadlines. Night shifts. Reality. Not voices in the dark. Not gods that whisper her name like they've known her for centuries. But something is wrong. What starts as small inconveniences-glitching systems, strange sounds, a creeping sense of unease-quickly spirals into something far more dangerous. Accidents follow. Illness spreads. And the world around her begins to fracture in ways that cannot be explained. Unseen forces are watching. From the Bones of Biringan, ancient beings stir- and they are watching her. Because Sinta is not just an ordinary woman. She is Babaylan. And when she awakens, she will no longer belong to the world of men. She will belong to them all. But the Bakunawa-he will belong to her.

Lilah Desmarias had been anticipating her 18th birthday ever since she found out what a Filipino debut was: fancy coming of age ball, formal attire, dance numbers, and just a big, grand night. Before she knew it, the planning stages were almost over, and it was a week before the party, the day of her real birthday. Little did she know, she would be forced into the middle of a war between two descendant lines of two important Filipino demigods: Mayari, the Moon Goddess, and her brother, Apolaki, the Sun God, who had fought over who got to rule the Earth in the myth that spoke of how night and day came to be. The two descendant lines had been enemies for centuries, one believing that their ancestor won the fight fair and square, and the other line separating, running, and hiding in hopes to save their lives. To add to the crazy, she finds out they're all on a hunt for Mayari and Apolaki reincarnations, who are rumored to come back for a second battle, this time without a sibling bond to hold the two back. Now Lilah's life is between the mythological world she had learned to be more reality than myth, and the normal human life she was living, full of boy troubles and decisions about college.
