WHEN OCEANS RISE is a Filipino Little Mermaid coming out May 2023.
Malaya barters with a seawitch; her voice for a new life—one in which she was never with her abusive boyfriend. But when Malaya timeshifts into her new existence, she discovers she shipped a happier version of herself off to her crummy, old life and that Filipino Mythological creatures now run rampant in both worlds. The Sea Witch used her voice to unleash the beasts. Malaya must fight to get her voice back if she wants to save both worlds. But as she gets further away from her ex and closer to Salvador and Gabrielle, her ability to save the world becomes impossible.
