We kept walking until the fog cleared.
I gasped.
We weren't in the island anymore.

"may mga bagay na mas mainam nang ibaon sa limot, at manatili na lang nakabaon." ******0o0****** in the darkness of the night, a scream shattered the silence of the quiet town of San Isidro. a blood curling scream that seemed to rise from the depths of a grave. No one heard it. No one saw anything. only the moon and stars bore witness to an incident that seemed destined to be buried and forgotten---and would soon unearth secrets long kept hidden. Mara, a city girl, is forced to live in her late grandmother's ancestral mansion as punishment for her rebellious behavior and lack of interest in school. her parents had reached their limit and sent her away---against her will. for what the hell could she possibly do in a house that's more a hundred years old? but one day, a corpse is discovered near the old poison ivy wall of the Perez mansion. a missing girl, a cold case that the authorities failed to explain. and just like that, Mara's already chaotic life spirals further into mystery. with every step she takes toward the truth, she is drawn deeper into a dark secret of the past: one she can no longer escape. the visions in her mind, the strange sounds, a cold lullaby only she can hear, and emotions that no longer feel like her own---are they leading her somewhere... or trapping her? the town of San Isidro is not ready for the truth that's about to surface. and while they desperately curse and hide their secrets, the darkness they left buried in the shadows is returning. but the darkest secrets are not found among the dead---they are hidden among the living. A SHORT STORY.

Flame of Apolaki (Cycle of Elements Saga #1)

16 parts Complete

A forbidden fire. A false god. A girl who was never meant to survive-only to rise. In Irasan, the sun never sets-and neither does the tyranny. Beneath a sky forever burning, Kalila, a young thief from the ash-ruins, steals emberstones just to survive. But one spark ignites a power long forgotten-and marks her as the reborn flame of a god the Fire Priests buried in lies. Now branded a heretic and hunted by a theocracy that fears her, Kalila must confront visions of Apolaki, the true god of the sun, sealed beneath a mountain for crimes he may not have committed. To awaken the world, Kalila must burn through it first. Myth meets rebellion in this Filipino-inspired fantasy filled with divine fire, elemental seals, ancient betrayal, and the rise of a girl who refuses to be extinguished. Inspired by Filipino mythology and folklore
