Iska is cursed to have the Hand of Bathala, a hand that can attract, kill and create spirits and monsters at the expense of her life.

Plagued with misery, Iska seeks the help of the only person known to have cured the curse, a prodigious and jaded Babaylan, Min, who has lost his ability to heal the spirit of one’s being, Sight.

As the two journey together through islands and barangays to bring back Min’s Sight, they encounter the different spirits and monsters of the Philippine folklore.
