Story
Edit
John Marston and Bonnie MacFarlane try to find Bonnie's father, who has gone missing. They find him standing among several dead men that he speculates have been killed by rustlers. John and Bonnie head back to the ranch only to find that the barn has been set ablaze by Williamson's gang. Marston must get the horses that are trapped out of the burning barn.
WalkthroughEdit
Mission PrerequisitesEdit
Before this mission becomes available, the player must complete:
- Bonnie MacFarlane mission: "A Tempest Looms"; and
- Leigh Johnson mission: "Spare the Rod, Spoil the Bandit"
Mission ObjectivesEdit
To complete this mission, the player must:
- Ride with Bonnie to locate her father.
- Return to MacFarlane's Ranch.
- Climb the windmill and enter the burning barn.
- Save the horses in the barn.
Mission DetailsEdit
After learning Bonnie's father hasn't been seen after he went out to ride the land, you must go assist her in finding him. Once found in bad state he'll send the player back to the barn to fetch a wagon to move the dead men. Once John arrives, he'll find that the barn has been set afire by Williamson's bandits in retalliation for the family nursing Marston back to health. After that, the player will have to free the horses. Climb up the left side of the barn, up the platforms when prompted and jump up to the tower, shimmy across the side of the barn, then walk around to the back of the barn. Once inside the barn, remove the pitch fork barring the door and then smack the two horses on the rear to get them moving. For the last horse, the path is blocked, and the player will have to mount it and jump out of the barn to safety. (The player does not need to press jump to make the horse jump — when the horse reaches the obstacle, it will automatically jump.) Bring it to the stable near Bonnie to complete the mission.
