Sometimes I just gotta hope that Copilot AI is not feeding me BS as its points work out so well.
When I was formatting my “Chief and Little Dove” draft teaser short story for the Boudica and the Beast novel, I decided to make Chief (a Union army sniper and scout) an Apache as it would allow a story universe tie-in to my drafting Geromino’s Spirits novel by making him Chappo’s nephew, so Tak’s son.
Pleased with myself, I wondered whether doves, with reference to Little Dove, held any special significance in Apache traditions and bingo as it perfectly matched the drafted Chief short story. According to Copilot:
In Apache tradition, the dove holds special significance. It is seen as a symbol of motherhood, revered for its nurturing and protective qualities. The Apache believe that doves remind us to nurture and care for ourselves and others. When you see a dove, it may be interpreted as a call to action to be more compassionate and supportive toward those around us.
