Plot

Pale Arrow was orphaned as a boy and raised as the son of the Pawnee Chief, Wise Eagle. Now an adult, Pale Arrow witnesses his fellow braves attack a wagon driven by two people who are trying to rejoin the rest of a wagon train passing through Pawnee land. Pale Arrow rescues the two individuals and returns them safely to their comrades. Subsequently, he and Wise Eagle come to an agreement whereby Pale Arrow will see if he is able to return to his roots as a white settler. He takes the name Paul Fletcher and becomes a scout for the wagon train. Wise Eagle wants to live in peace with white people but, upon his death, Crazy Fox becomes Chief and stirs up a desire for war in the Pawnee. Paul Fletcher/Pale Arrow is caught between these two worlds and must choose one when it becomes clear the wagon train is about to be attacked.
