What do you do when your normal life is just a cover story?
Alden thought he was just another high school student trying to survive exams, noisy siblings, and awkward crushes. But after one strange encounter, the world begins to unravel literally. Cracks form. Shadows move. Old myths whisper his name.
And then a mysterious teacher with terrible fashion sense shows up and says, "You're not just a student. You're the key."
Great.
Now hunted by forces beyond this world, Alden must face ancient powers, strange dreams, and suspicious cafeteria food while still turning in homework on time.
This is a coming-of-age fantasy with strong Filipino roots.
If you like rooftop drama, sarcastic characters, mythological twists, and the occasional life-or-death prophecy this is for you.
I wanted to write something that mixes heart, humor, and heritage. There's action, there's drama, there's magic but also Milo, slippers, and sibling chaos.
This isn't just about fighting monsters. It's about finding out who you are, even when the world tells you to be someone else.

Disclaimer:
While this story draws inspiration from Filipino mythology and history, it is purely fictional and not intended as an accurate representation of real historical events or cultural beliefs. Creative liberties were taken for the sake of storytelling and drama.
This is a deeply personal story for me, built with late-night overthinking, too much coffee, and a ton of love for Filipino myths.
It's the kind of book I wish I had growing up so now I'm writing it.
