Encantadia is a vast enchanted realm four kingdoms where different mythical creatures live: Lireo, Sapiro, Adamya and Hathoria. The tranquility and future of Encantadia rests on the four gemstones of water, earth, air and fire; each being carefully kept by the bearers from each kingdom.

But when the Hathors, from the kingdom of Hathoria threatened to steal all the gems from the other bearers, hostility and war swept over Encantadia. Then the battle of three kingdoms against one begins.

The story unfolds in Lireo, the queendom where Ynang Reyna Mine-a lives with her four daughters: Pirena, Amihan, Alena, and Danaya. The four Sangg'res are tasked to be the new keepers of the gemstones. Their skills in war and their powers as the royalty of the diwatas are believed to be the strength of Lireo. As long as the gemstones are kept properly, the balance of nature in Encantadia remains. But with great power at stake, relationships start to crumble as Pirena had plotted the downfall of her own sister Amihan, who won the competition for Lireo's crown. The other Sanggres Danaya and Alena took Amihan's side.

With this situation, Lira, the long lost daughter of Amihan returned to Encantadia and tried to fulfill her mission of mending the broken relationships of the strong-willed gemstone keepers.

New Singles From Hale & Urbandub

I have surfed through TV stations this morning, and guess what I've found on Myx.

Here's Hale with Harinawa:


Hindi ka na naawa
Hindi ka ba nagsawa
Sa gulo ng ating mundo
Lasing na sa bagabag
Hanap pa ay alak
Huwag mong isipin sarili mo

Tignan mo ang sarili
Muli mong pagsisi
Sanlibutan ay lupigin mo
At darating ang araw
Kalangitang bughaw
Ay dagliang maglalaho

Chorus:
Harinawa't makita mo
Harinawa't makita mo
ooh...

Guhitin mo sa palad
Lahat ng iyong pangarap
Ang oras ay hindi humihinto

At sa iyong panaginip
Pilitin mong gumising
Ang buhay ay hindi paraiso

Darating, darating ang bukas
Darating, darating ang bukas
Darating darating ang bukas
Darating darating ang bukas


Urbandub's A Call To Arms:


I see your face all tired & weary
From battles fought, lost & won.
You take your chances
Fuck the consequence
Dive right in with no regrets
No regrets.

There's no point to keep your head face down
When all we see and know and fell is temporary
Spread your arms and keep your head held high
Good things are better taken in
The less you notice

Witness to a city that never sleeps
Where sins are made then buried
Doesn't matter how deep or hidden
It's always, always there.
Hold back the tears, there's little reprieve
If you show you are weak
You're accepting defeat
Pick up the pieces and dust yourself off
Then banner away.

Heaven won't wait
So don't hold back
Don't waste another minute
You carry all the weight
'Coz you think you got no worth
I'll be happy come the moment you've guessed it all.
This is your call to arms
So take in all you desire
Heaven won't wait so don't hold back
Now take it all.
