The Order of Melkizedek	comment	A 1966 murder-mystery novella from the acclaimed Filipino English-language author, and National Artist for Literature, Nick Joaquin.In the midst of The '60s, United Nations functionary Isidro "Sid" Estiva, middle of three children by different mothers, comes down from New York City to the Philippines, and especially to Manila, land of his birth, where at the airport, instructed for some reason to hold up a toothbrush as a sign to his recipients, he's accosted by thugs, bundled into a taxi, beaten and stripped of his clothes and stranded in a cemetery. He's rescued by de facto divorcée Sonya Borja who later gives him a lift to the new elite suburbs in Makati, where he's reunited with his half-sisters Adela and Guia—the elder former is the sensible matron owner of the house and the wife of a staunch Catholic layman, and the younger latter's identified several times with different cultural crowds in her past short life, seeking always to find a new group where she feels she might really belong.Inquiring as to the cause of his brutal reception, Sid learns that, quite by accident, he's gotten mixed up in the recruitment process for a shadowy, if charismatic, Cult calling itself the "Order of Melkizedek", whose stated purpose is to put a radically modern, but also uniquely native, spin on Christian proselytism by infusing it with indigenous imagery and open festivities in ways still alien or anathema to the Catholic establishment, itself still reeling in the wake of the Second Vatican Council and all its reforms now in the process of implementation. Guia, in fact, has already fallen in with the cult, calling herself Sister Guia and going on the road with fellow sisters performing their own interpretations of Christian services. But the various investigators into the cult (including, inevitably, Sid) eventually cobble together their observations: it holes up by default in a bombed-out former convent in Citadel City Intramuros; it has a tendency to vanish to the unworthy, the sceptical and the suspicious; its rumoured deeper motive may be to resurrect long-lost indigenous religions to which the modern-Christian spin may just be a front; and it's led by a tall, limping, long-bob-haired minister who may or may not be the latest reincarnation in a long line of cult leaders stretching far into the Philippine past, using the guises of The Three Wise Men (the current one calls himself Father Melchor, and he's had a Gaspar and a Baltazar for predecessors, naturally), but who also goes by Melkizedek, after a prophet mentioned early on in The Bible, and it's in this guise that he lures in his followers, many of whom are women from well-to-do backgrounds (Guia herself being one of them).

The Order of Melkizedek / int_2f75473	comment	Number of the Beast: The entry point for the cult is in room 666 in a modern building in Manila's Quiapo district note a thickly populated spot of bazaars and examples of the practice of folk Catholicism—the district is known especially for the Black Nazarene festival; interestingly, it also hosts a lot of Muslim Filipinos, who in the 1970s had a mosque built for them within walking distance of the Quiapo Church. The cult seems to have hurriedly vacated it by the time Sid shows up to investigate however.

The Order of Melkizedek / int_2fef0c01	comment	Twisted Christmas: It's mostly background detail (odd considering just how central Christmas is to mainstream Catholic-Filipino culture), but the whole story takes place around the couple or so weeks surrounding Christmas and New Year (of 1966 or 1967?), and Guia is shot dead in the middle of it. The holidays are still hinted to be ongoing outside during the aftermath, when Sid retreats up into his office out of shock.

The Order of Melkizedek / int_330826ca	type	Latin Land
The Order of Melkizedek / int_330826ca	comment	Latin Land: It's The '60s now, so most of the obvious trappings of this trope are fading out of urban Manila, giving way to an intensely Americanising (but simultaneously indigenising) landscape and culturescape, but many traces remain stubbornly, or else are being revived: Santiago's club, for one, is done up in a sort-of late-Spanish-colonial style, a restored bahay na bato (local stone-based house) with a lot of Catholic statuary and imagery, though many of these are carved in indigenous styles. The ruins of Intramuros, the early-Spanish-colonial Citadel City formerly containing the colony's capital and largely obliterated by American shelling in World War II, are the setting of Salem House, the Order's headquarters. Then of course, there's all the central question of the continuing relevance of Catholicism—the most obvious Spanish introduction—to a modernising urban Philippine society. Plus, a lot of characters still have explicitly Hispanic-Catholic names ("Sid", simply short for "Isidro"; "Adela"; "Guia"; "Santiago").

Adela, too, lives with her husband Santiago in a similar suburban-style house in an even more upscale subdivision.

This being the Philippines, he probably was literally named after the saint. There is a fort in Intramuros named Fort Nuestra Señora de Guia, from which Guia was presumably named. It might be the fort in which the Order holes up. In Real Life its best-known structure is the distinctive concentric rings of the Baluarte de San Diego.

In particular, the then-current (i.e., 1960s) iteration, Fr Melchor by name, is accused of sending the thugs to beat up Sid and murder the taxi driver who knew too much, as well as running a cult that—to give an example of the more outrageous theories—even practices things like Human Sacrifice, and in the end, appears to be indirectly responsible for Guia's death, as her joining it in the first place makes her a target for The Fundamentalist Fr Lao—who, for the single act of murdering Guia, himself ends up also qualifying for this trope.

Another subversion in Adela who mentions in passing that her mother was Aglipayan (i.e., a member of the Philippine Independent Church, founded by the Revolutionary cleric Gregorio Aglipay, basically the local equivalent of the Church of England).
