Chapter 28 de 33 · 15 min para leer el chapter
In Chapter 28, Magua visits the Delawares, fails to recover Cora through polite requests, and uses gifts and accusations to turn their attention toward the Long Carbine. His claim that they shelter a dangerous enemy prompts a formal gathering, where the revered Tamenund appears and the prisoners are brought forward.
Qué sucede
- Magua enters the busy Delaware camp peacefully and shares a meal with its leading spokesman and several elders.

- He suggests that sheltering English scouts threatens the Delawares’ standing with their French allies, then names the Long Carbine.
- The news unsettles the camp, and the elders call a formal gathering of more than a thousand people.
- Tamenund arrives with two elderly supporters, receives his people’s reverence, and sits as the prisoners enter the assembled circle.
