How do I complete the “The King’s Son” mission without losing honor?
The King''s Son is a story mission in Red Dead Redemption 2 where Arthur Morgan helps Rains Fall, the chief of the Wapiti Native American tribe, retrieve a sacred artifact stolen by the U.S. Army. To complete this mission without losing honor, you must avoid unnecessary violence and make ethical choices throughout. Here''s a detailed guide to help you succeed.\n\nFirst, the mission begins at the Wapiti Reservation, located northeast of Valentine. Speak to Rains Fall to initiate the mission. He will explain that his son, Eagle Flies, has been captured by the Army, and a sacred artifact has been stolen. Your goal is to infiltrate the Army camp, retrieve the artifact, and avoid detection or unnecessary bloodshed.\n\nWhen approaching the Army camp, stealth is key. Equip your bow or a suppressed weapon to minimize noise. Use the terrain to your advantage by crouching in tall grass and moving slowly. Avoid direct confrontation with soldiers unless absolutely necessary. If you are spotted, try to subdue enemies with non-lethal takedowns or use Dead Eye to quickly eliminate threats without alerting others.\n\nOnce inside the camp, locate the tent where the artifact is stored. It is usually marked by a glowing yellow indicator. Be cautious of patrolling soldiers and use distractions like throwing rocks to lure them away. Retrieve the artifact quietly and exit the camp without raising alarms. If you are detected, prioritize escaping over fighting to avoid unnecessary casualties.\n\nAfter retrieving the artifact, you will encounter Eagle Flies, who is being held captive. Free him by cutting his bindings with a knife. At this point, you may face a moral choice: whether to kill the soldiers guarding him or spare them. To maintain your honor, choose to spare them. This decision aligns with Rains Fall''s peaceful philosophy and ensures you do not lose honor points.\n\nFinally, escort Eagle Flies back to the Wapiti Reservation. Stay vigilant during the ride, as you may encounter hostile forces. Use Dead Eye to protect Eagle Flies without causing excessive harm. Once you reach the reservation, the mission concludes, and your honor will remain intact if you followed these guidelines.\n\nTo summarize, completing The King''s Son without losing honor requires stealth, restraint, and ethical decision-making. Avoid unnecessary violence, prioritize non-lethal methods, and make choices that align with Rains Fall''s values. By following these steps, you can successfully complete the mission while maintaining your honor.
