The Long-lasting Tree A bloody resistance against colonial invasion that tears Seme's indigenous leadership apart marks the entry of a strange culture into the clan. Osayo, the priest, seeks to protect the clan's religious system from erosion by the Blue-eyed (colonists). He, however, has to face off with a few loose canons, including his own son who escapes to a mission center far from home and ends up falling in love with a convert. In the meantime, a terrible plague breaks out in the clan, killing animals and people and leaving the land barren. Coupled by a misunderstanding of concepts in the new faith propagated by the Blue-eyed, a longstanding rift and blame game emerge between the converts and the conservatives, and spuns into a cutural marriage. Soon afterward, Osayo dies and his son, Okayo, realizes he has a greater role to play. The supernormal powers of the clan's aboriginal religious tree are stolen by a witch in line with a prophetic myth. And in a painful and tumultous mission to reunite the two conflicting religions of Seme Clan and limit the Blue-eyed's influence, Okayo puts his front foot forward in combating witchcraft so as to have the tree's powers in safe custody, and protect good from being superseded by evil.

Behind Her Innocence
“Maaari ko bang isangla muna sa iyo ang kwintas na ito kasama ng singsing ng aking mommy?” Anya ng pitong taong gulang na batang babae sa isang lalaki na nakapikit habang nakasandig ang ulo sa sandalan ng upuan sa isang waiting area ng hospital.
Seryosong tumitig ang 20 years old na binata sa isang munting bata sa kan’yang harapan.
“Alam ba ng mommy mo na isinasangla mo ang ang wedding ring niya?” Seryosong tanong na hindi maalis ang tingin sa mala anghel na mukha ng bata.
“Ang sabi ng doctor ay kailangang maoperahan si mommy, pero wala akong pera, hindi mo naman siguro ipapaalam kahit kanino na sinangla ko ito sayo, di’ba?” Malungkot na sagot nito, bago matapang na sinalubong ng batang babae ang mga mata ng lalaki.
“Paano kung kukunin ko ‘yan, paano mo ito matutubos sa akin? Hindi ako tumatanggap ng pera.” Seryosong pahayag ng lalaki.
Saglit na nag-isip ang bata na wari mo’y naguluhan.
“Kukunin ko ‘yan at sasagutin ko ang operasyon ng mommy mo pero sa isang kondisyon, magiging akin ka at pagtuntong mo sa tamang edad ay ikakasal ka sa akin.
Kung hindi ka tutupad ay hindi ko babalik sayo ang kwintas at ang singsing ng mommy mo.”
“Pumapayag po ako.” Inosenteng sagot nito.
