Blood. Magic. Deception. And the dominion of the damned.

Year 3040. In the techno-occult Philippines, peace and progress flourish-but balance hangs by a thread. For nine centuries, three factions-aswang (vampires), engkanto (elves/fairies), and the human resistance-have waged a relentless battle for dominion.

Now, as ruthless schemes and greedy ambitions reach a boiling point, the delicate equilibrium is about to shatter. A new dawn of supremacy looms on the horizon-
and only one faction will seize it.

"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.

MAKATI: The City of Horrors

1 part Ongoing

Year 2099. Makati has become a city split in two - the glittering Uppercity, where the elites live above the clouds, and the decaying Undercity, where the forgotten struggle to survive. When a series of brutal murders rocks the unfortunate Undercity, a weary investigator finds himself caught between corruption, power, and something far more sinister than crime. Every lead bleeds, spreading from local gossip to international headlines. Every secret is peeled open - exposed for the world to see. And in a city built on lies and false hopes, the real horror looms beneath the neon lights and synthetic rain.
