A lot of us are huge fans of Greek and Roman mythologies, but did you know that we also have our own set of mythological stories? Content creator Inka Magnaye's latest TikTok series actually showcases our own version of mythology, which is both entertaining and educational.

ICYDK, Inka is a voice-over artist known for the in-flight PAL advisory and the iconic radio spiel of radio station Play FM. She also has a podcast called Sleeping Pill with Inka and does TikTok as well.

For Part 2, Inka decided to do Mayari, goddess of the moon and night, who is also the daughter of Bathala.
