However, in spite of Father leaving, the curse continued to torment Warren and Florence, who could have also hired another miner, Old Ike, to help with their gold prospecting business. He leaves a letter behind to Warren, stating that he is sorry for what had happened to Warren's mother, and saying that he loves his son. Eventually, as the means to rid Father of the curse all prove ineffective, he decides to leave farm on his own, hoping to avoid bringing more misery into their lives with his presence. It is during this time that the group can return to the crime lord's town, which, in his abscense, had descended into chaos, to finish off the criminals roaming the streets. ![]() Initially, the group decides to look for ways to undo the curse, such as throwing a coin down a well, speaking to a fortune teller and seeking an exorcism by Father Gervais in the nearby church. After defeating the crime lord, Father is caught with an unexpected event: his amulet spontaneously cracks and crumbles in his hands, leaving him cursed with constant bad luck. Warren, Father and possibly a miner that they had hired, Pate Douglas, proceeded to the town where the criminal held Florence, rescued her and killed El Eshcuro, Cheech and other guards before escaping. Florence, hoping to appeal to the crime lord's kindness, attempted to barter with him, but was imprisoned. However, as time went by, the increrasing amount of gold the had obtained had allowed El Eshcuro to grow more powerful, to the point where he was taxing almost 50% of Warren's family gold business. The amulet purchased by Father, much to his surprise, does grant them luck, and in the following weeks, the family starts making a good profit out of the gold mining. Meanwhile, Warren returns with Florence, whose family had been brutally murdered by the invading criminals, and she begins to live with them. During that time, a strange, well-dressed man appears and speaks to Father, who at the time had grown impatient with the gold mining process, and sells to him an amulet designed to grant them luck. After successfully stopping the bandits, Warren sets out to check on Florence's family, leaving Father alone in the farm, as Father stays behind, possibly building a secret tunnel to the farm should the player choose to do so. The crime lord agrees to help if the family starts to pay taxes to him on every gold they obtained, giving Father and Warren weapons and sending his henchman Cheech to help defend the homestead. As they continue to mine more gold, news spread of their success, and in order to ensure their protection, Father decides to request protection from the region's crime boss, the loan shark El Eshcuro, much at Warren's begrudging approval. During that time, Father and Warren become acquainted with Florence's family, neighbors not interested in gold prospecting, and eventually Warren and Florence find themselves in love.

Ten years after the tragic events, Father and Warren, barely surviving due to their farm, decide to return to the Oregon Trail as Warren's mother would have wanted, but require supplies in order to do so. Both financially and emotionally devastated, Father and Warren decided to remain in the region, living in an old railroad building which the two converted into a farm. One of the cultists, mortally wounded by Father, but still alive, told him they had killed her in order to fulfill a ritual that would make the Devil grant them riches in Hell. After a brief firefight, Father emerged victorious, but proved unable to save Warren's mother, who had been decapitated by the bandits and had her head put in a box. ![]() Warren's mother was taken away from Father and Warren by the bandits, who hoped to sell the two to white slavers, but Father managed to break free from his restraints and pursue after the kidnappers. ![]() As supplies began to dwindle, Father hoped to sell his hunting gear to assist the family, but the town they found themselves in was overrun by a group of Satanic cultists, possibly under the command of the Masked Man, and all three family members were imprisoned. Additionally, while Father is a good hunter and marksman, he could not find any animals to provide for his family as they progressed along the trail, although their scarcity was seen as extremely odd, as if something was deliberately keeping them away from Warren's family.
