KASARINLAN : saga of pinoy superheroes

Title: Kasarinlan - Sikalon Arc Genre: Action, Superpower, History, Drama, Romance, Fantasy Artist: Alab ng Apoy Type: Manga and Novel Note: This is a fantasy story infused with Philippine history, set in an alternate world. Tagline: "Freedom, Unity, Peace, The three symbols a nation needs to fight against foreign oppression. But what happens when those who embody and deliver these qualities clash in their methods and beliefs on how to protect the nation they are meant to safeguard?" Plot: For over 500 years, the powerful nation of Spain has colonized the Philippines, treating it as one of its colonies. Due to countless failures and defeats of Filipino heroes and revolutionaries, the people gradually lost the courage to reclaim their homeland from the colonizers. With hope fading, Filipinos eventually surrendered and accepted Spanish rule over their nation. Over the centuries, Spanish governance grew increasingly cruel toward the country's citizens, dividing Filipino society into two classes: Honorary Spaniards or "Hilaw" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos who abandoned their Filipino identity to become "adopted childre ton of Spain" in exchange for certain privileges in the country. Low-Class Citizens or "Indio" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos from poor families, stripped of numerous privileges and rights in their own land. Due to their low social status, they are often oppressed, abused, and unable to defend themselves in any court or legal system in the country.

The Legend of the Uncharted Island

In the 17th century, the infamous pirate Verbeck terrorized the Spanish colonies, amassing a fortune beyond imagination. But his greatest secret isn’t hidden in the Caribbean… it lies on a mysterious island in another world, where he concealed his treasure along with an artifact of unimaginable power: A legendary relic forged by a forgotten and mysterious civilization. Centuries later, a failed writer steals an old journal describing a sailor’s journey in search of an island that appears on no map. Inspired, he writes a novel based on the accounts—unaware that its publication will provoke the wrath of the Spanish Empire and the Holy Inquisition, who see more than mere fiction in its pages. Accused of heresy, the writer is imprisoned. But before his arrest, he hides a crucial clue to the treasure. When his granddaughter uncovers the truth, she sets out to investigate, only to be pulled into the same deadly conspiracy. Her path soon crosses with that of a young Jesuit priest—himself a descendant of Verbeck—who is also on the trail of the lost island. Together, they join the crew of Captain Skippy, a daring elf in the service of the Sylvandrian colony, a hidden elven enclave on the fringes of British Georgia. With his homeland on the brink of economic collapse, Skippy sees this treasure hunt as their last hope for survival. But they are not the only ones chasing Verbeck’s fortune. A ruthless viceroy, a bloodthirsty pirate, and fanatical inquisitors—driven by dark forces—are all willing to kill for the relic and the cursed gold. For Skippy, his crew, and their unexpected allies, the journey will become more than a treasure hunt—it will be an odyssey that challenges the laws of their world and uncovers secrets that were never meant to be revealed.

Al Borde del Abismo (Spanish)

El continente de Terrazir se dibuja sobre un mar sin fin, tierra de colinas que ondulan como olas, montañas que arañan el cielo y praderas que parecen no terminar jamás. Aquí, la historia de clanes y reinos se ha escrito con la sangre de los inocentes y el lamento de los vencedores. Justo en su corazón, se alza Zhailon, un reino de imponentes murallas y el hogar del que se dice, nacen los guerreros más poderosos. Para muchos, pertenecer a Zhailon es un blasón de poder y ambición. Para el joven Aiden, sin embargo, alguna vez fue simplemente su mundo, el lugar donde su futuro como estudiante destacado de la Academia Eilhart apenas comenzaba a florecer. Pero una noche fatídica, todo cambió. En una única y trágica confrontación, el mundo que Aiden conocía se hizo añicos. Condenado, su sangre Svalthren, una sombra que pesaba más que cualquier prueba, fue arrojado al silencio desolador del Bastión Hueco. Quince años transcurrieron allí, y con ellos, la esperanza desapareció casi por completo. Fue entonces, con la coronación de un nuevo rey, Veilon Thalmyr, que una orden inesperada retorció su destino una vez más. Aiden fue sacado de la oscuridad, no para encontrar la libertad anhelada, sino para ser puesto al servicio de las nuevas fuerzas de élite del Rey, bajo la mirada y el mando de la peligrosa Angellon Norvel. Ahora, de vuelta en un mundo que lo reconoce solo como el fantasma de un crimen, Aiden se encuentra en una senda sembrada de peligros. Atado por un deber que no eligió, a un rey del que desconfía y a una comandante cuyos verdaderos motivos son un misterio, los ecos de su pasado claman por venganza. Pero el futuro, incierto y amenazante, parece exigirle que se convierta en alguien completamente distinto. ¿Se dejará consumir Aiden por la amargura de todo lo que le fue arrebatado? ¿O podrá encontrar, entre los escombros de su antigua vida, la fuerza para enfrentar lo que viene, y quizás, solo quizás, forjar un nuevo camino? Su viaje se desvela... Al borde del abismo.
