The sea remembers what the world forgets. The amulet was never meant to be worn-its power too wild, too ancient, and too deeply tied to the bones of the world. Karina had returned it to the depths, believing it was where it belonged. Sealed. Lost. Safe. She was wrong. Now, the amulet has been stolen from its watery grave, and the fragile balance it once held is unraveling. Storms rise without warning. Shadows twist in daylight. And those who covet the amulet's power have already begun to use it-not knowing, or not caring, that it comes at a price. As Karina is drawn back into the currents of an older war, she must follow the trail of a thief through drowned ruins, cursed shores, and secrets long buried by her ancestors. But reclaiming the amulet may not be enough. Because something else has awakened with it. And this time, the sea may not be willing to take it back.

Philippine History Enjoy

From the renowned Filipino reformist and national hero Dr. Jose Rizal comes a classic piece of literature portraying the grim reality of the backward state of the Philippines during the Spanish era. After the events of the first novel "Noli Me Tangere", El Filibusterismo follows the story of Simoun, a mysterious jeweller from America on a business venture in the Philippines. Widely known by the name "Black Cardinal", he earned his infamous reputation as a trader for his dark but unusually persuasive countenance, crooked morals, and unorthodox methods in doing business. To the regular folk, he is just another entrepreneur with a twisted sense of morality, but unknown to everybody, he is much more than just a mere opportunist he seemed to be. For beneath his dark glasses and silvery white hair, there lies beyond them a much deeper and darker persona...waiting for the right time to strike!

This is my very first attempt at writing a short story. Enjoy!
