Instagram Rebrand

I have changed my Instagram handle from babymoonmaita to maita.rue. Perhaps in the future, I will revisit my specialized clothing brand and pet clothing but for now, I am concentrating on Art and Stories.

New Book Alert! Neph XY: Emergence of Prophecy

 Neph XY: Emergence of Prophecy

Junio journeys through memory and time to uncover his destiny.

Tikbalang. Warrior. Leader. Will he rise or fall?

This new book is all about Junio and his spiral in time. His life isn't going so well. He's being used and abused, fighting a war he feels is pointless, reeling from the absence of his parents and dealing with puberty. Did I mention Junio was only 17 years old? Like in Stanzo's book, he's also 17, looking for the point in life.

Special children were able to gain powers between 7 and 17. They lose their powers at 18. In the meantime, governments, organizations, and even the church are using these children.

Junio hates it, but he still wants to save children. He rescues three of them in a secret lab. Instead of setting them free, he embarks on a wild adventure in time and destiny. 

And maybe, just maybe, his destiny intertwines with Prophecy.

So, who are the bad guys? Meet the 3rd Generation Nephilim, who will do whatever it takes to restore the "good old days" when humans still revered them as gods.

Stanzo - Used to lead his own team. Works for the government of Singapore as a Neph Exterminator. He can turn into a Kapre/giant. Battling depression in his book, he was finally able to heal when he realized that helping children healed his inner turmoil. After losing his powers, he still continues to train children in the orphanage and around the world.

Tino - When he was fifteen, he and his twin, Stanzo, were separated. He was given to China as a Neph exterminator. As he excelled, he became a captain of his own squad. After being sold to Dagon, he developed PTSD.  After losing his powers at 18, he helped Stanzo train the children in the orphanage.

Junio- 17 at the start of his book. He can turn into a Tikbalang, a horse-headed humanoid giant with claws. Because of the twins' training, he was faster and better at fighting. He had a high kill-count and was a powerhouse known to many around the world for his fighting prowess. He works for Interpol, heading his team.
