Deity: Reimagining the Adventures of an Ilokano Epic Hero

By Ruby Galvez

Immortality is not a gift. It is a sentence.

Lam-ang, the legendary warrior of Ilocano epic, was chosen by the spirits to guard against the shadows that thrive in greed and conquest. But for his service, he was cursed: to love the same woman across lifetimes, and to lose her every time.

From the battlefields of the Spanish conquest to the modern streets of Baguio, Lam-ang pursues Ynes-reborn as Belinda in the modern age-believing love will finally break the cycle. Yet shadows find them still, and even an immortal cannot outwit grief.

At once a reimagining of Philippine mythology and a modern story of psychological unraveling, this novel is about the resilience of faith against temptation, the cruelty of time, and the endless longing of the human heart.
