(Caution: Contains sarcasm, monsters, Filipino culture, flying slippers, and a sprinkle of destiny.)

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.

"There were many legends and stories about werewolves and vampires, dragons and elves, spirits and demons, but why couldn't he find any record about a being who lived, yet seemed not to exist in this world? Was this ritual dangerous? Summoning demons? Sacrificing his soul? Luther closed his eyes tightly. Deep down, he knew what his decision was. He needed an answer to his fifteen-year-long question." This is the story of two boys who awaken their divinities (a reaper and a sun god.) One was born with everything. The other lost the only few things he had. What will happen when the Flow of Destiny intertwines their lives? This is a story about salvation and being saved, about life and death, about exploration and adventure, about kinship, friendship, and love. Follow Luther and Aaron as they wander through the boundless Cosmos; strolling the magical market Mariana, diving into the silent depths of the Tranquil Sea, riding the Orion Express under starlit skies, visiting Sicily the city of blossoms and fruit, travelling the Heart of the Cosmos, crossing the wilds of Anasia, climbing the Tower of Tomorrow, and countless other realms where wonder never ends. What to expect: - OP MCs. - Fantasy worlds/food/species ... - Found family. - Slice of life. - Lots of cozy moments, yet the stakes are still there. - Slow burn romance (Strangers to friends to family to lovers, oblivious x oblivious.) - Cute pets. Imagine a blend of Harry Potter (a hidden magical world in a modern setting) and Percy Jackson (Descendants of Greek Gods) with a Ghibli vibe. Though told through young eyes, I hope this tale may also be read as a fairytale for grown souls: a heart-warming and wholesome adventure, with a hint of darkness and a pinch of sadness. Warnings: - Gay. No sexual content. - The story takes references from Greek mythology, Dante's Inferno, and Ars Goetia, but will add, remove, and modify many different details. Please consider this as an alternate universe.

Sa isang iglap, nagbago ang tahimik na mundo ni Luxcia, isang mortal na babae mula sa karaniwang daigdig nang siya'y biglang mapadpad sa mahiwagang mundo ng Irotia, isang lupain na tanging sa mga alamat at panaginip lang umiiral. Sa mundong ito, namamayani ang mga nilalang na matagal nang nawala sa gunita ng tao. Bampira, aswang, lobo, diwata, mangkukulam, duwende, at mga elfeng mandirigma at marami pang iba. Sinasabing si Luxcia ang pinili ng kapalaran, ang tagapagligtas na tanging makapagliligtas sa Irotia at sa kanyang sariling mundo mula sa isang paparating na kadiliman. Upang maisakatuparan ang kanyang tadhana, kailangan niyang maglakbay sa pitong makapangyarihang kaharian: Vandoblade (kaharian ng gabi), Worolof (lupain ng mandirigma), Nanturia (gubat ng kalikasan), Magicolonia (kaharian ng mahika), Atlantaria (Kaharian sa ilalim ng dagat), Aerolia (Kaharian sa kalangitan), at Ferolia (Kaharian ng Apoy). Sa bawat kaharian ay nakatago ang isang Circle of Power, sinaunang kapangyarihang nagsisilbing susi upang mabuo ang isang puwersang kayang itaboy ang kadiliman. Kasama ang mga bagong kakampi at kaibigang may kanya-kanyang lihim, haharapin ni Luxcia ang mga pagsubok, pagtataksil, at ang mga misteryong bumabalot sa kanyang pinagmulan. Ngunit sa isang mundong puno ng hiwaga, sino ang tunay na kakampi? At handa ba siyang harapin ang katotohanan sa likod ng kanyang pagkatao? Tunghayan ang paglalakbay ni Luxcia sa mundo ng mahika, kapangyarihan, at tadhana.

There is an unexpected turn in the story that drastically changes the course of events and, in the long run, even the lives of those involved. Magpie, the first to be involved, suddenly finds himself in the world so unlike his own. Will he find his place there or will he be at least able to go back home? He seems to find his way back from this new world of giga-dimensions but something unwanted happens, and things go worse. The cultural differences, together with a challenging personality traits of another involved in the events, suck Magpie and his friends into a downward spiral. The story challenges you to see the world differently from the perspective you are perhaps too used to and narrowed by. Life can be an adventure if you don't narrow it with a bigotry that forces you to be rooted in your trenches and behind your dividing walls. This doesn't mean you have to accept others' views without standing your ground. However, to be able to share our lives in this one and only world we need to make compromises, on both sides. Are you the first brave one to set this positive trend in motion? So read on and let the foundation of the story be laid. From the end of episode 1 on, the story really picks up, finally reaching its climax at the end of episode 3 with quite a surprising finish. Your participation in solving this shared challenge of coexistence and cooperation is highly appreciated. Remember those who cooperate make more progress than those who don't! The ideal audience for my first book is actually between 12 and 16, but anybody older and interested in adventures, cultures and in getting more understanding into our multifaceted world is sure to enjoy the story. (The whole story has now been published, the only thing I'll still add is the final epilogue but the story is already available in its entirety.)

"I saw you and you were just standing there. I started walking towards you and you-just-just stood there." Stuttered Stiles. "I tapped on your shoulder and you turned around. You didn't answer me. You didn't even notice I was there. You just stared at something, something that wasn't visible and y-you-" Paused Stiles, whose legs were vibrating and he started to breathe heavily. "And I what?" I asked trying to get the words out. "You died." He stated. "What?" Asked I, like he had just said the most craziest thing ever. It was slightly humorous. He had to be joking, I thought to myself. "You- just died." Murmured Stiles, who had stopped shaking and had stood up. -------------- The world consists of many parallel multiverses. Each separate and unique. We all know Earth 1, yet not many people are familiar to the lost planet, Earth 1000. The planet was Imperium; Declared the most powerful, biggest rogue planet of the multiverse- many people sought out to rule it. Therefore a war was sparked. Some people say, that the planet birthed death because of the deadly war. However, something else was birthed, an heir. Her name was Milia. She possessed true power and ultimately ended the war. Milia ruled the world and her children became the inevitable successors. Although they lacked Milia's gift, the future generation, though it was thousand's of years later contained Milia's powers. The children were named the true heir, therefore they were hunted. No hunter was more well known than the bitch, the baddest; Methaya. Being half human, half snake, her luminescent eyes turned the living into the inanimate. To save her children, the Queen of the planet rifted her children into Earth, where they lived for 500 years, unaware of their cursed destiny. After a prophecy declaring that the oldest would die, the truth started unravelling and they learnt things- that would change things forever. Genre: Mystery, Fiction and Fantasy Warning: it does contain cuss words.
