Etheria(2005)

Etheria is a Filipino fantasy series that serves as both prequel and sequel to the original Encantadia. Produced by GMA Network, the show follows the four elemental Sang'gres and Ybarro as they travel back in time to witness Etheria in its full glory, before the events of its predecessor series unfold. The narrative weaves together the kingdom's past and present, exploring the magical realm's history while connecting to the larger Encantadia mythology. Running for 50 episodes from December 2005 to February 2006, Etheria bridges the telefantasya franchise's story arcs, leading directly into Encantadia: Pag-ibig Hanggang Wakas. The series blends time-travel adventure with the lush fantasy world that defined the franchise.
