The tailor was alive and well. We bought most of what we needed from him and headed back to our pad. One of the things we bought, being sneaky and all, was a suit that would allow us to cheat at Liar's Dice and Poker! We strolled into the saloon cocky as could be and found us another game of Liar's Dice. Not long into it we found our ability to cheat was oddly absent and had to sit through a slow decline into loss. Angry at this, we charged out, regrouping in our house once more. We found out, much to our dismay, that the Elegant Suit (the one we had used) only let you cheat in Poker. While I suggested we do this posthaste, Stephen had a different idea in mind. We had a bandana now, which would let you do anything you wanted without affecting fame or honor, with the only drawback being an increased wanted level. With no law whatsoever in Thieves' Landing, something I just now realized, this really presented an opportunity for us. We were going to head down to the saloon, dressed in a Walton's Gang outfit, and shoot it up, paying those cheaters back for what they did to us. We burst in, shot our prime rival in the leg and commenced in tearing the place apart. When this was done, we kidnapped the liar and headed off to drop him in the river. This we did, but unfortunately we went with him. DEAD.
Since it didn't save our little escapade we had to try again. Things went smoothly until the end when we burst out the back door and discovered there was no railing, sending us flying into the river and... DEAD. SO we headed back a third time, and things seem to be going well now. We've done our duty and are now headed off for the border. To Mexico! Hasta la vista, America! Our plan is to make Mexico the place where we rack up a bounty, letting us allow our lawless side to take control. I look forward to seeing how this will go. Probably poorly.
