A) When a writer is trying to use a figurative language
Answer:
The sequence of events are:
- Young Matoaka, a Native American, saves English captain John Smith when he was imprisoned by her tribe.

- Pocahontas is kidnapped by the English and forced to convert to Christianity.
- She changes her name to Rebecca.
- She marries John Rolfe.
- She moves to England with her husband.

"Princess of the New World" is a graphical novel written by Loïc Locatelli-Kournwsky that presents Pocahontas' life narrative, from her youth in her native tribe, until the day she is brought to England as a lady named Rebecca Rolfe .
