Stars Without Brightness

War erupts, and the  Archipelago boils. In the midst of it all is a group of young warriors whose destinies have been inextricably intertwined. 

When young warrior Nami offers to help Bitoon in the final step of their training as a spirit medium, they must survive a forest that harbors something more dangerous than steel and sorcery: the sins of their fathers.

When the Insane Child Patak is accused of killing the one that took care of him, the peerless swordsman Pak-an Gabii and the last survivor of the Butchering of Datu Warayrito's village, Inday, are told to hunt him down to finish the job. Soon they will find themselves in doubt of their orders, and of their lives.

STARS WITHOUT BRIGHTNESS is a Fantasy novel set in a setting inspired by Late Porcelain Period Philippines mired in war, and follows a skilled spirit medium, a hotheaded warrior, a rebellious prince, a princess turned flesh-eater, a revived swordsman, and a passionate monster in their quest to fulfill orders and duty, facing the truth of war and violence.

This novel is the first book in the HEAVEN MOVES WITHOUT YOU Fantasy series.

Additionally, this is set in the setting of my upcoming Tabletop RPG: Gubat Banwa!
