A man's name is important and Salip Pulaco has more than one. He's been called a pirate, a savage, a fool, and sometimes a hero, but a changed man? Now, that one is still up for debate...
      
Feared by his enemies and loved by his people, Pulaco must find away to protect not only his family, but also his own chiefdom as his enemies descend towards him- enemies that range from an ambitious rival datu, a fleet of Conquistadores with enough fire power to burn down his village, an arrogant and spiteful princeling, an undeserving Regent, and many more. While his allies include a mysterious headhunter, a hot-head brother-in-law and a mixed-bag of warriors. 

This is a story of one's Identity, one's Legacy, one's hunger for Glory, one's longing for Peace and one's dream to live Free.
      
A fantastical retelling of a Filipino classic with a dash of magic and a whole lot of blood set in Pre-Colonial Philippines. Now on the Wattpad Recommended List- Cozy up & Connect and AmbassadorPh's Mythical Reads

Bathala by jctokudai

In a modern world oblivious to its mythical past, a young woman named Maya discovers she is the chosen vessel of Bathala. As Bathala's power awakens within her, Maya finds herself entangled in a battle against nefarious creatures from folklore that threaten to plunge both the mortal realm and the divine realm into darkness. Joined by a group of deities, who now live as ordinary people, Maya undergoes rigorous training, unearths shocking revelations about her own lineage, and uncovers the true extent of her powers. With unexpected alliances, heartbreaking betrayals, and jaw-dropping plot twists, the journey becomes a race against time. As Maya's bond with the deities deepens, they face relentless adversaries, shattered loyalties, and the emergence of a powerful evil force. Sacrifices must be made, secrets unmasked, and unexpected alliances formed. With their world teetering on the brink of destruction, Maya and the deities confront their own doubts and fears, united by a common purpose: to protect the fragile balance between the mortal realm and the realm of myth. In a final, climactic battle, Maya embraces her destiny, assuming the mantle of Bathala's power, and leads her comrades in a fight that will determine the fate of humanity. With the fate of both realms hanging in the balance, this gripping tale of courage, sacrifice, and redemption unveils the untold secrets of the deities, as they battle against unimaginable odds to save their world and forge an everlasting legacy.
