First meeting with Gertrude Braithwaite
The Braithwaites are one of the richest families in the region in Red Dead Redemption 2. Their mansion is huge and if you walk nearby you can find a strange little wooden hut. In the latter you see a locked up woman.
This woman seems to be crazy and has many physical deformities. That’s all you’ll learn for now. To progress in this whole story, you need to start the quest “A True Love V”. The latter takes you to Braithwaite Manor.
There you have to help Penelope. Once you have her on the horse, take her to the famous hut so that she can tell you more about the woman inside. You will then learn that it is his cousin Gertrude Braithwaite and that The latter was imprisoned there and not taken to a sanatorium.
A situation that will shock Arthur, who will be outraged by the treatment of Gertrude Braithwaite. Faced with these remarks, Penelope will then promise that once she is in Boston, She will make sure that she takes more humane care of her cousin.
A mysterious series of numbers
A promise that she ultimately fails to keep. When you return later in the game, you will find that Gertrude Braithwaite has died in her cabin that his cousin never came to his aid ! But for this secret quest you must come back before you die.
As you approach Gertrude Braithwaite’s cottage, you can actually hear her repeating a series of numbers, which players initially thought might be a hidden message. However, research on this topic has been inconclusive.
Only the first row of numbers turns out to be an Easter egg in Grand Theft Auto V and its online version. In fact, it is the telephone number of Madame Nazar, a clairvoyant. But as far as the other sequences are concernedThere doesn’t seem to be any message behind it.
The only thing that players have noticed is that the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 keep appearing. However, these figures and the hut in which Gertrude Braithwaite is imprisoned will be of utmost importance in a wild village.
Gertrude Braithwaite and Butcher Creek
This village is called Butcher Creek and its atmosphere is, to say the least, heavy. In fact, the inhabitants are sick and victims of deformities. You will be able to find out the reason during your adventures and There is nothing paranormal behind it… or at least almost.
If you go to the burnt house at 4am, you can even see a red pentagram underneath! You will also notice that around the village, There are 5 cabins identical to the one in which Gertrude Braithwaite is imprisoned.
However, each cabin has a number engraved between 1 and 5. If you connect these according to the numbers, You will then see that it forms a pentagram over the village from Butcher Creek!
Disturbing facts that we unfortunately have to make do with for now. In fact, we are not given any further clues about Gertrude Braithwaite or Butcher Creek. For many players, however, this does not only mean that unclear things are happening in the village, but also that Gertrude Braithwaite’s madness could be due to demonic possession!
