After this unfortunate event Orosco converted and became a missionary priest who worked among the oriental tribes. He was always accompanied by his son Carlos who became very fond of a young Indian beauty named Cumandá. She saved the young white man's life in several situations. Finally she agreed to become the wife of the chief of the Jibaros Yahuarmaqui so the Jivaros would spare her beloved Carlos's life. At the end of this masterpiece we find out that Cumandá is the daughter of Juan Domingo Orosco and that she didn't die when his ranch was destroyed thanks to the protection of Pona wife of the chief of the Paloras. As it turns out Cumandá was raised in the jungle by one of the Indian tribes. Cumandá dies sacrificed according to the customs of the tribe; Father Orosco reconciles with his enemy Tongana and helps him to die as a Christian and the loss of his daughter ends the life of purity Father Orosco had vowed to uphold.</p><p><strong>Insurance & handling is included free.
