Enchanted Beginnings...
Maria Bernarda Balitaan is considered the founder of Ciudad Mistica de Dios. When Maria Bernarda was born, she came out of her mother's womb enclosed in a soft ball of tissue. Her mother, thinking that it was only a mass of tissue, decided to have it thrown away.
Now, the cousin of Maria's mother was tasked to throw it. The cousin felt something urging her to do otherwise; so she hid the ball of tissue in Mt. Banahaw and returned to check it three days later. When the cousin went back, she brought with her a midwife who would then break the ball of tissue. Then, Maria Bernarda emerged.
So what happened to Maria Bernarda after she came out of that enchanted ball?
What else? She did all enchanted things (since she was three) that all prophets and heroes do. Then she became the founder of Ciudad Mistica de Dios.
