What if I told you that even the Great Bakunawa fell in love once?
---
▪︎RISE OF CREATURES SAGA #1 ▪︎
In Hemia's world, there were once seven moons and its seven blessed keepers who guarded them against the wicked moon-eater dragon named Bakunawa. However, as the six moon keepers failed one by one and Bakunawa ate each of the moons, the world was threatened to be drowned in abysmal darkness with a single moon remaining.
Eleven years later, it's up to Hemia, as the sole successor of the seventh moon keeper to defeat Bakunawa. But without even knowing how to use her inherited power, becoming a Moon Keeper is like squeezing water from a stone.
So when a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity presented itself in front of her, she needed to close her eyes, grit her teeth and hide all of her pent-up anger to grab it. Because she'll need to team up with her sworn enemy, the weakened and cursed Bakunawa himself.

Lavender is in love with Yuan, the perfect guy--kind, sweet, charming, and a musician like her. The problem? He's not real. He only exists in her dreams.
***
Lavender Laxamana can't sing or play the guitar in front of anyone anymore. She hides in her dreams where she can perform and play music to her heart's desire with Yuan. Lavender has already accepted that the man she loves is just a figment of her imagination, but when she crosses paths with Aki, a starting artist who goes by the name of Musikero and looks and sounds like Yuan, Lavender is hopeful they can finally be together in real life. But reality slaps her in the face when she finds out Aki is the exact opposite of Yuan, and he loathes her.
While Lavender struggles to find the connection between Yuan and Aki, can she finally find the courage to stop escaping from reality--no matter that Aki may be in love with another woman? And can she finally face the rhythm and beats of her heart and pursue her passion again? How far will she go--or not go--for her dreams?
