Start
You brought down Fort Mencer? This is unbelievable. The area around Adillo is safe again thanks to you.I have thought about the Calvin person you are searching for. He is donating the sheriff union a fortune every year. This man pays most of my salary.But if you are convinced he has something to do with all this I have a hint. There will be the poker championship soon, he is one of the favorites. But it is not free for audience. To get there you will have to attend as a player and pay a horrific attendance fee of a very large amount of dollars.I have an idea to get enough dollar. I have a warrant for an army renegade. He was part of the Confederate army but then disappeared. Please ask the pony express for his last address. This deserter is nowhere to be found. The bounty on his head is really high. I do not know why, but it seems there is more behind it than just deserting. Read the text closely to know what to do.
 Finish
Perfect, you managed to get the last address of the army deserter from the pony express. Can you visit him and arrest this soldier? I have no time at the moment.

We know that the last address of the deserter was in Sad Hill.Sad Hill... Only a few people who refuse to give up their houses remained to live there. It turned into almost a ghost town.The Southern and the Northern army set up camp around the town. They are besieging each other for months now. Sad Hill is on the border between North and South, so each side claims the city. No nice place to live.It is located in the South of the prairie. Saddle your horse and get there to arrest this coward.
 Finish
A fire? Maybe he burned the house himself to leave no trail on where to find him.

You arrive at Sad Hill. The town is vastly abandoned as the sheriff reported earlier. You hear faint gun sounds from the distant army camps. You are not surprised that the soldier chose to run away, this siege seems to have exhausted the whole area.The town is pretty small and you manage to find the address in no time... But what is that? You do not trust your eyes: The according house is burning bright.What happened here? All evidence on how to find the deserter are consumed by the flames. You decide to extinguish the flames as quick as possible.
 Finish
You finally get out of the flames coughing and exhausted. The only thing you have managed to save from the hot flames was a letter. You decide to open it:My beloved Jane,I have deserted from the army and acquired all the money needed to buy you everything you've ever dreamed. But they are on my heels and I need to go underground for a brief spell. Do not worry. Love you, Bill.

A love letter. You wonder what money he is writing about. You decide to visit the woman the letter was addressed to. Maybe she can tell you where to find the renegade soldier.Lady:A letter? From Bill? Phew I thought he was dead or something. You know, Bill was such a nice guy. He once told me blablablablabla......This lady keeps blabbering and blabbering for hours on end. You must be really tough to get through this monologue.
 Finish
Finally she stopped talking. You get to know that the renegade Bill has promised to shower her with money and presents. But then he disappeared and was never seen again.But you received a new clue out of all the blabbering; the former colonel in charge of the renegade's division has retired and is staying in Sad Hill. Time to pay this veteran a visit. Maybe he knows how he got so much money.

After a short walk you arrive at the house of the veteran. You catch him tending trees in his garden.Veteran: Bill Carson hmm? I know him, that damn deserter! Yes, he was in my division. Help me with these trees and I will give you the information you seek.
 Finish
You spent some time with the veteran in his garden. He told you about his life in the army, his life after the army, and finally Bill Carson, the deserter the sheriff was looking for.The veteran's division had a highly confidential task. They had to get a cache of Confederate Gold worth a large sum of money out of the field of battle. Carson waited for the right moment when the division was asleep, stole the cache and was never seen again...A large amount of money, that is the exact amount you need to attend the poker championship Calvin is attending. If you could only find this deserter. You decide to prowl through the streets of Sad Hill for more clues. Somebody surely must have seen him.

Brunette:The guy you just arrested was my partner. What am I supposed to do now?! Why did you stick your spurs into other peoples' business? This was our trick: He'd raise a deft sum on his head. I played the bounty hunter and arrested him, collected the fee, shot him free from the gallows, and we shared the bounty. Then we went to the next city and performed the same ruse again.A healthy business it was - until YOU got in and acted up as a deputy. I demand compensation ! What? No, you cant just give me the money. I am a notorious bounty hunter, and I planned to keep my reputation. Get the sheriff to put a nice bounty on your own head, and we'll talk more. For this quest it is okay if you put the bounty on your own head.
 Finish
Brunette:If you think we are even, then you are barking up the wrong tree. You have to play the gallows trick like my former partner did. We will have to do a duel show where you will lose, and I will collect the cash.

Upon your return, you see the brunette kneeling next to the passed-out soldier. Damn, you are positive he told him about the money.Brunette:Finally I got you! Yes, this soldier told me about a cache of gold buried in a graveyard. But he was unable to tell me the name written on the tombstone before he passed out.Great! Just great... You decide to loot the body for any useful information. Maybe he carried some more clues with him. Read the quest text and do the required job if you are not sure what to do.
 Finish
You found a paper! It bears the name of the grave! It's the grave that hides the Confederate Gold!Before you can read the name the brunette tears the paper into two parts. Your part only reads the surname of the grave. That means you will never find the grave where the cache of Confederate Gold is hidden unless you team up with the brunette. Only he knows the last name of the grave encryption. You both make a deal to share the money.

I escaped with a handmade weapon. Just try to find some useful stuff while working the prison labor and we will be out of here in a jiffy. You will find pieces for your weapon while doing the tasks the Confederate soldier has given you.
