A Life of 'Shine[]

In 1898, Maggie, having survived the burning of her shack, resumes moonshine production, aided by the protagonist, whom she has rescue Lem from a prison transport so that he could assist them. Lem helps the protagonist unload supplies at the port of Annesburg, where they are ambushed by Reid Hixon's agents, whom they barely escape from.

Later, Maggie arranges a meeting with Bartholomew Braithwaite and Danny-Lee, whose moonshine production she and the protagonist have been sabotaging, under the guise of making amends by providing a shipment of moonshine, and has Lem anonymously tip off Hixon. When Danny-Lee and Bartholomew arrive to find Lem and the protagonist absent, they are quickly held at gunpoint by revenue agents. Danny-Lee is arrested while Bartholomew bribes Hixon to let him go. The agents also capture the protagonist and Lem, who were hiding nearby, but they escape after Lem accidentally shoots a wagon full of explosive moonshine that they brought, setting the surrounding swamp on fire. The protagonist then kills Hixon and captures Danny-Lee. Upon bringing him to their shack, Maggie confronts and eventually forgives him for turning to the Braithwaite family for protection. She lets Danny-Lee go on the condition she would never have to see him again.

Following this, Lem continues to produce and sell moonshine with Maggie and the protagonist.
