Excerpt

Sometime in May, after the island-province of Bohol went on a more relaxed quarantine, four friends decided to take their minds off the coronavirus pandemic still raging elsewhere in the country by going for a hike up the mountains of Maribojoc town.

Christian Gio Bangalao tripped over what appeared to be a hard shell protruding on the ground.
