It is on one such day, when despair weighs heavier than reason, that Claire crosses paths with a ragged beggar in a forgotten alley. After saving him from harm, he presses a simple, weathered watch into her palm and whispers a warning disguised as a promise: "The watch can turn back time." Claire dismisses it as madness.

Title: Kasarinlan Note: This is a fantasy story infused with Philippine history, set in an alternate world. Tagline: "Freedom, Unity, Peace, The three symbols a nation needs to fight against foreign oppression. But what happens when those who embody and deliver these qualities clash in their methods and beliefs on how to protect the nation they are meant to safeguard?" Plot: For over 500 years, the powerful nation of Spain has colonized the Philippines, treating it as one of its colonies. Due to countless failures and defeats of Filipino heroes and revolutionaries, the people gradually lost the courage to reclaim their homeland from the colonizers. With hope fading, Filipinos eventually surrendered and accepted Spanish rule over their nation. Over the centuries, Spanish governance grew increasingly cruel toward the country's citizens, dividing Filipino society into two classes: Honorary Spaniards or "Hilaw" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos who abandoned their Filipino identity to become "adopted childre ton of Spain" in exchange for certain privileges in the country. Low-Class Citizens or "Indio" (as the Spanish call them): These are Filipinos from poor families, stripped of numerous privileges and rights in their own land. Due to their low social status, they are often oppressed, abused, and unable to defend themselves in any court or legal system in the country.

Not every meeting happens in the living world. Before their bodies were exchanged, Ruqayyah and Aisha met in a white, silent space—a place where words were unnecessary, and understanding came without explanation. There, a mysterious device awaited them: the Book of Qadar. Though it looked like a book, it was a system—a mechanism that allowed the Keeper of Light, Saleh, to communicate with them and give them tasks. It did not show the future; it revealed that every life has a limit, and every choice carries weight. When Aisha woke in the modern era, a world without servants, rules, or walls separating what was permitted and forbidden. Freedom, she soon learned, could be just as frightening. At the same times, Ruqayyah opened her eyes, she was no longer in the 21st century. She had become Aisha bint Al-Fadl, daughter of a powerful vizier in the Abbasid Dynasty—a world of knowledge, politics, and hidden dangers. As history unfolded, their lives became threads in a far larger design. Across centuries and dynasties, one bloodline would be called again and again—not to change history, not to save the world, but to face the same question in different eras: If your life is only one chapter in a book you cannot finish, what will you do before the page turns?

“I gave you my soul in my last life. In this one, I’ll settle for your crown.” ~ In my first life, I was the devoted Queen. I waited two months for my husband, King Lauren, to return from the front lines—only for him to walk through the palace gates with a beautiful young maiden by his side and a decree in his hand: ‘She would be the new Queen’. And because of that evil beauty he brought to our kingdom, I died a discarded "nobody," executed for a crime I didn't commit. But death didn't take me. It sent me back. I woke up on the morning of his return. The crowds are cheering, the flowers are blooming, and my husband is about to humiliate me in front of the entire kingdom. But he doesn't know I've changed. He doesn't know I've returned with a special skill that makes me the most dangerous woman in the room. Before he can introduce his "New Queen," I hand him the one thing no one in this kingdom has ever dared to ask for: Divorce papers. In our land, a Queen asking for divorce is an abomination punishable by stoning. But Lauren thinks I’m bluffing. He looks me in the eye, tears my petition to shreds, and growls, “You are my wife. I will never stamp those papers.” He thinks he is keeping me trapped. He doesn't realize he has trapped himself in a palace with a woman who knows every one of his secrets—and is prepared to burn his kingdom to the ground just to see him sign his name. My goal is simple; I will make him fall... not in love, but to his knees. Since he spent my first life making me cry. I’ll spend my second making him bleed.
