Stunned by the death of their chief, Beliza and the remaining members of the Council must take care of their communities while hunting for the traitorous former council member, Tadjana. Treated as the interim leader, Beliza has to take on the responsibility despite her lack of experience. While her instincts are beset with premonitions of impending doom, Beliza is comforted by the presence of their powerful elemental guides. After a sudden attack wreaks havoc in their community and hobbles the elemental guides, the council's coalition is in danger of fracturing. Soon, Beliza and her friends face decisions they have no idea how to make, and evil entities they weren’t trained to fight against. A riveting fantasy adventure set in a world inspired by Filipino folklore and mythology, THE LAIR OF SHADOWS AND LIGHT is the second book in The Katalonan Chronicles series by Oz Mari G. and S.J. Powell.
Ancient Beliefs and Customs of the Tagalogs
Author: Jean-Paul G. POTETPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0244348731
Category : Tagalog (Philippine people)
Languages : en
Pages : 654
Book Description
This book is a provisional essay, followed by a vocabulary and an index, on the Tagalogs' world view in the Sixteenth Century. It is mainly based on the entries of the earliest dictionaries of the Tagalog language. These were written by Spanish lexicographers about half-a-century after the conquest of the Philippines (Cebu 1565, Manila 1571). Additional data are drawn from Spanish chronicles. Many of the recorded beliefs and customs were already obsolete at the turn of the Seventeenth Century. Some are extremely surprising, starting from the primeval myth according to which the world had no solid land at its beginning, but only two fluids, water and air.
