Every legend has a shadow. We grew up hearing stories of creatures that lurk in the dark, spirits that wander the earth, and beings that live beyond the world we know. But what if the stories we inherited were never the whole truth? Tales in the Shadows is a collection of short, twisted retellings inspired by Philippine folklore. Each story takes a familiar myth, legend, or creature and looks beyond the fear surrounding it-to the stories, emotions, and truths that may have been forgotten. The monsters may not always be monsters. The spirits may not always be cruel. And the legends may not always belong to the people who told them. Some stories hide pain. Some hide love. Some hide warnings. And some have been waiting in the shadows for someone to finally listen. These are the tales you thought you knew. These are the tales hiding in the shadows.

Born from an impossible union, Bakunawa was never meant to exist. The son of a Tawak healer and a Hukluban mind-weaver, he is born with the body of a serpent, the armor of a beast, and a mind unlike anything the kingdoms of Kanlaon have ever known. Feared as an omen, Bakunawa and his parents are banished to the wild frontier of Borohasqualla. But exile does not break him. As Bakunawa grows, so does his strength, ambition, and understanding of the world that rejected him. From an outcast child, he rises to become a warrior, conqueror, and eventually the ruler of an army of thousands. When his ambition brings him into war with the kingdoms of Tarquillian, an ancient law offers a final alternative to slaughter: a battle between champions. Among those chosen to stand against the Serpent King is a young Kapre warrior known as Aramon-the Black Bolo. Two warriors. Two visions of power. And one final question: Who has the right to rule?

But this is the week the dead return, and her grandmother Maren - warm, familiar, impossibly alive - has come back with a bill nobody ever told Sneveer existed. Decades ago, Maren made a choice in a burning house that should have killed her. It didn't. Now the price has finally come due - and it isn't Maren's to pay. It's Sneveer's. And she has seven days to find out what she's really made of and what she's willing to lose to keep it.

In a forest that remembers everything, a little girl's secret comes back to find her - carried by voices only the mice can hear. WHY A MINI FANTASY TRILOGY? Because each story unfolds in three parts, each with its own title. At first glance, every part reads as a closed chapter - but each one quietly signals that a sequel follows. If I had to name the genre, it would be: fairy tale. The mini trilogies draw on world mythology, borrowing characters, symbolism, and folklore steeped in the fantastical - yet the storytelling itself is entirely original, copying neither old folktales nor existing myths, but building something new through the author's own vision. Written for readers between Young Adult and New Adult, though anyone may find something to enjoy here. Clear themes meet unexpected twists, and each story balances epic elements - virtue, flaws, the pull between good and evil - with a lyrical, nature-steeped sensitivity. Illustrations bring this magical, ancient world further to life: an illustrated Mini Fantasy Trilogy. And why so sad? Perhaps because this planet isn't my true home - or so all my characters seem to whisper. Text and illustrations copyright © 2026 by Lyra W. Vance. All rights reserved.

Existentially exhausted and miserable, Yoo Cheol is only biding his time until his grief eventually consumes him. When will that time come? He's not certain, but one thing is for sure: He longs to be in Shin Eunho's arms again. There's nothing he wouldn't give to feel the warmth of his kisses once more! The only issue that stands in his way is that they're separated by life and death. Literally. So when he wakes up in an orphanage entire eras away from his timeline, he thinks his despair has finally driven him to the point of insanity. In reality, Cheol had really reincarnated in his 16-year old body again into a suburban town in South Korea in 2012. With no knowledge whatsoever of any technology, and whatever basic social skills needed to survive in modern Korea, and on top of that being required to attend the town's high school, matters couldn't possibly get any worse! Except. Except, somewhere within this chaotic town and amongst the unwarranted high school drama, Eunho lives. He breathes. The same person, the same soul across different worlds, untouched by the memories of his past life with Cheol. By divine intervention, it seems like Cheol has been given a second chance to rewrite fate with his love once again, Eunho. But second chances are never given for free. Because fate will always take back what it once lost. * ALL artwork included in this work is mine, unless specified otherwise!

Growing up as a pitiful pariah was hard, but it was nothing compared to the war brewing in the shadows. The day I was born, the mortal realms shattered, and nightmare creatures emerged, all claiming that the first demon bound to my soul was the cause. I've spent my life fighting the monster inside me, plagued by fragmented memories of a past life where I was a war general thousands of years ago. But I am no longer in control. My mind has been forced back in time, trapped in a loop by a ruthless faction using my own memories against me. They sent me back to watch my every move. They want the hidden book that holds the dark truth of my entity-a book they believe I hid in this very timeline. To survive, I must outsmart my captors, escape this entity's grip, and find the book first even if it means enrolling in the heart of the Academy that once banished me. The supernatural world has arrived to reclaim its prize. They want the demon. They want the power. But they don't understand one thing-I've already lost everything I've ever loved. And when you have nothing left to lose, you become the most dangerous weapon on earth.
