little more. Golden Sun helped Little Turtle on the vision quest, and was the one to find the plant that he needed to help Pale Moon. I also warmed up to the side story about Dancing Feathers, the rather wild and disobedient filly that Pale Moon slowly tames. I like that Golden Sun helped Dancing Feather and tried to show her that being with the tribe was a good thing.
