In the aftermath of the Little Bighorn, the thunder of victory fades—and the cold silence of exile sets in. The Lakota follow the buffalo north into Grandmother’s Land, where they hope to find peace beneath the Queen’s flag. But peace proves fragile. As hunger gnaws and promises vanish, two great leaders—Gall and Sitting Bull—stand at a crossroads.

In this episode, we follow Gall through snow-covered trails and shadowed decisions. He is no longer just a warrior, but a provider, a man weighed down by the survival of his people. The bond between brothers-in-arms frays as visions of the future diverge. One seeks survival through return. The other clings to resistance. Both carry the nation on their shoulders.

This is the story of quiet courage, of dignity in desperation, and of a rifle passed from father to son—not as a weapon, but as a final prayer.
