How do I complete the "The King’s Son" mission without losing honor?

The King’s Son is a main story mission in Red Dead Redemption 2 where Arthur Morgan is tasked with helping Rains Fall, the chief of the Wapiti Native American tribe, retrieve a stolen artifact from his son, Eagle Flies. To complete this mission without losing honor, you must avoid unnecessary violence, make ethical choices, and follow specific steps to ensure a peaceful resolution.\n\nFirst, the mission begins in the Wapiti Reservation, located in the Grizzlies East region of the map. Speak to Rains Fall to initiate the mission. He will explain that his son, Eagle Flies, has taken a sacred artifact and is planning to use it to incite conflict with the U.S. Army. Your goal is to retrieve the artifact and prevent further bloodshed. To maintain honor, avoid killing or harming innocent people, including soldiers and civilians, unless absolutely necessary.\n\nAfter speaking with Rains Fall, you will ride with him to Fort Wallace, where Eagle Flies and his men are preparing for a confrontation. Along the way, Rains Fall will ask you to gather herbs for medicinal purposes. This is an optional objective, but completing it will increase your honor. Look for herbs like Yarrow and Burdock Root in the surrounding area. These can be found near the riverbanks and forested areas around the Wapiti Reservation.\n\nOnce you arrive at Fort Wallace, you will need to sneak into the camp to retrieve the artifact. Use stealth to avoid detection by the soldiers. Equip your bow or throwing knives to silently take out guards if necessary, but only do so if they are directly in your path. Killing too many soldiers will lower your honor. Instead, focus on staying hidden and using distractions, such as throwing rocks, to create openings.\n\nInside the camp, locate the tent where the artifact is stored. It is marked by a glowing yellow icon on your mini-map. Once you retrieve the artifact, exit the camp quietly. If you are detected, avoid engaging in combat and instead flee on horseback. Use the terrain to your advantage by riding through dense forests or rocky areas to lose pursuers.\n\nAfter escaping, return to Rains Fall and hand over the artifact. He will express his gratitude, and the mission will conclude. By avoiding unnecessary violence and completing optional objectives like gathering herbs, you will maintain or even increase your honor throughout the mission.\n\nOne common challenge players face is being detected while sneaking into the camp. To avoid this, crouch and move slowly, staying in the shadows. Use Eagle Eye to highlight enemy positions and plan your route. If you are detected, do not panic. Quickly retreat to a safe distance and wait for the alert to subside before continuing.\n\nAnother tip is to save your game before attempting the mission. This allows you to reload if you make a mistake that results in lost honor. Additionally, consider wearing clothing that blends into the environment, such as dark or earth-toned outfits, to reduce the chances of being spotted.\n\nIn summary, completing The King’s Son without losing honor requires careful planning, stealth, and ethical decision-making. Focus on avoiding unnecessary violence, complete optional objectives, and use stealth mechanics to your advantage. By following these steps, you can successfully complete the mission while maintaining your honor.
