Old Oak doesn't move much. Still, a lot of interesting things happen to him. / The Old Oak doesn't move too much. Still, a lot is happening to it. There is one form of terrestrial life that can make better use of a given floor area than any other. A way of life that makes better use of the potential of the area than any other known way of life. A way of life whose greatness lies in its simplicity. Trees are special creatures. they grow extremely slowly and - perhaps precisely because of this - are able to live extremely long. They give way to birth and life as well as passing away. By their mere existence, they ensure the survival of thousands and thousands of other species. Trees are so different from other living things that they almost fit in better as an extraterrestrial life form than as a living thing of this world. They are completely different from other plant species, not to mention animals. Time passes differently for them. For such a giant, a day is like a moment. A season is like a fleeting clock. And a year is like a day that quickly disappears. Our story is about a tree. About a giant that hasn't moved a bit in the past centuries: yet a lot of interesting things happened to it.
