About¶

Daligmata is a lamanlupa in animal form, full of big and shining eyes, which can only be seen at night. ¹

In some instances, the Daligmata helps people finding lost things, as well as during the Gudguden ritual to heal those who are sick or had their souls stolen. ¹

There are other cases where the Daligmata itself steals the souls of dreaming humans through its singing. ¹
