In "Apology for Warpaint," Keena, adopted son of Brave Eagle, sets out on a journey of conscience after learning his father left a young warrior at the fort for joining renegades. Determined to make amends, Keena returns to his original tribe, the Lotas, only to find white gun traders waiting for the council’s decision on whether to trade their gold for rifles. Dan Spiegle’s expressive artwork brings this poignant moment in the series to life, capturing the tension between tradition and the encroaching modern world.
