In the modern-day Philippines, the ancient and mystical world of the gods quietly interweaves with human existence. Tala, the radiant Goddess of the Stars, has long guided humanity with her celestial light, though her presence has waned as the world becomes more consumed by technology and forgets the magic of the night sky.
