Answers

Answer:

It conveys a tone of fantasy.

Explanation:

N. Scott Momaday's memoir "The Way To Rainy Mountain" is a series of travelogue/ history infused with folklore tales of the Kiowa people. This memoir serves as a means for the author's efforts to learn about his ancestors. The book contains details of the people from their original residence from Montana to the Rainy Mountains in Oklahoma.

The given passage from the text shows the personification of the sun as a human, capable of killing a person with a 'magical' ring.

The sun, as a human, gets angry and told 'the ring' to do what it was told to do, thus killing a woman, are all forms of fantastical elements in the story.
