Read these sentences from the story, spoken by Oona: In that place there be many Russian folk, and their rule is harsh. And from Sitka, Old Kinoos, who was Young Kinoos in those days, fled away with me, a babe in his arms, along the islands in the midst of the sea. My mother dead tells the tale of his wrong; a Russian, dead with a spear through breast and back, tells the tale of the vengeance of Kinoos. What can be inferred about Oona based on the information in this sentence

Based on the information in this sentence, we can infer that Oona's mother was a victim of Kinoos' violence.

Not sure what this is from, but based on the way this was worded, I would most likely assume that her mother was killed by the Russians.
~Hope this helps!
