"You who eat three times a day and see your children well and happy around you cannot understand what a starving Indian feels! We were faint with hunger and maddened by despair. We held our dying children and felt their little bodies tremble as their soul went out and left only a dead weight in our hands. They were not very heavy but we were faint and the dead weighed us down. There was no hope on earth. God seemed to have forgotten."

Answer:

The tone created is that of despair and sadness.

Explanation:

According to paragraph 8 of Red Cloud's speech after wounded knee, he decries the killings of Indians and tries to explain how weak and tired his people were, seeing their young ones dying in their hands.

Red Cloud who was an advocate for peace was distraught and deeply saddened by the treatment of the Indians and the extreme hunger they faced.

zhuklara [117]

Lancelot's past behavior, specifically, his secret love affair with Queen Guinevere directly generates the conflict and the moral dilemma that he faces in the siege of Benwick.

The illicit relationship of Queen Guinevere with Lancelot was exposed by Sir Gawain.  This treason caused King Arthur to condemn Queen Guinevere to death at the stake.

The death sentence then motivated Lancelot to rescue her.  In this process, he killed Gawain's relations.  Thus, Lancelot was further exposed to additional moral dilemma.  His actions inflated the revengeful grudge of Gawain against Lancelot.

While Lancelot worked to reconcile with the wronged King Arthur, Gawain was bent on revenge and succeeded in murdering Lancelot and burying him in a wrong place.

"Thus, Lancelot was further exposed to AN additional moral dilemma."
