The roads were full of travelers, merchants, bounty hunters, and men willing to take advantage of others' vulnerability. The law was becoming increasingly present, and the boundary between civilization and life outside of it was becoming progressively narrower.

In 1899, the Old West no longer entirely belonged to men who lived by the gun. The Van der Linde gang still believed they could find freedom away from the authorities, but the world around them was changing too fast.

After escaping the icy mountains, the gang headed for lower regions, leaving behind the snow, isolation, and extreme conditions of Ambarino. The landscape gradually gave way to forests, open fields, busy roads, and small towns that continued to thrive despite the changes in the country.

The group eventually established their new camp at Horseshoe Overlook, a hill surrounded by vegetation and located near Valentine, in the state of New Hanover.

The location offered much better conditions for recovery. There was access to roads, water, and areas where hunting was possible. Valentine's proximity also allowed the members to look for work, sell goods, buy provisions, and discover new opportunities to earn money.

The change brought a brief respite. After days battling cold and hunger, the gang could finally rest without having to constantly fight against nature. The horses had pasture, supplies could be replenished, and the camp began to regain some of its routine.

However, the tranquility was only apparent.

The Blackwater incident continued to haunt the group. The authorities still posed a threat, the lost money remained an urgent problem, and old rivalries hadn't disappeared. Furthermore, differences among the members and the pressure to find a solution were beginning to test Dutch's leadership.

Life at Horseshoe Overlook marked the beginning of a new chapter. The gang needed to make money, avoid unwanted attention, and find a way to escape the consequences of Blackwater for good.

Nearby, Valentine offered numerous possibilities: legitimate businesses, temporary jobs, gambling, hunting opportunities, and criminal activities. Each could provide resources, but also attract problems.

The escape led the gang through the mountainous regions of Ambarino, where winter mercilessly punished anyone who ventured into those lands. Snow covered the trails, icy wind pierced through clothing, and visibility decreased with each storm.

The horses struggled to advance across the frozen ground, while the survivors battled hunger, exhaustion, and the cold. The situation was critical: supplies were scarce, injuries required care, and any mistake could cost someone's life.

Survival became the only priority.
The group found shelter in Colter, an old, abandoned mining town in the mountains. Its dilapidated buildings offered limited protection from the storms, but it was better than remaining exposed to the cold overnight.

There, the gang tried to regain their strength and organize their next steps. The escape had destroyed any sense of security, and uncertainty about the future weighed heavily on everyone. Even so, abandoning hope was not an option.

During the following days, the crew members had to search for food, find horses, obtain supplies, and deal with the aftermath of the Blackwater disaster. The region also hid other dangers, including hostile groups who knew those mountains well and did not welcome outsiders with open arms.

The search for resources led some gang members to contact the O'Driscoll brothers, old rivals of Dutch and his companions. The rivalry between the two groups made the situation even more dangerous, making it clear that the snow was not the only threat in that territory.

Despite the difficulties, the gang managed to resist. When conditions allowed, the survivors began to descend from the mountains in search of a safer place where they could find food, money, and opportunities to rebuild their plans.

Year: 1899 — West Elizabeth, United States

The Old West was changing. Civilization was advancing into territories once dominated by gunslingers, hunters, and outlaws. Railroads connected distant towns, authorities expanded their reach, and the days of freedom for outlaws seemed to be coming to an end.

Amidst this backdrop, the Van der Linde gang struggled to live up to its own reputation. Led by Dutch van der Linde, the group brought together men and women who had found in each other a kind of family, united by the promise of freedom, loyalty, and a life far removed from the rules of society.

However, ambition and the need for money led the gang to plan a major heist in Blackwater, a prosperous town situated on the banks of the river in West Elizabeth.

The plan was supposed to provide enough resources for everyone to abandon their life of crime and start over. However, the heist turned into a catastrophe. Events spiraled out of control, violence took over the streets, and the gang suffered devastating losses. The expected money did not bring the promised security, and the increasing presence of authorities made it impossible to remain in the area.

The Blackwater incident marked the beginning of one of the darkest phases in the group's history. Pursued by the law and with no time to recover everything they had lost, the members were forced to abandon their plans and flee north.
