By pure chance he found his mother, who from a combination of depression, stress and the ill conditions of the poor at this time period in France, she had fallen very ill.

You follow him with your men close behind. Eventually you enter a clearing and a small indian village. A man walks up to you and says in english "Welcome this our village" "I was taught english and will in-in-interprate" He points towards a stick hut.
