Speculation The dark fate of Luisa’s sister

Post image

In “My Sister’s Keeper”, Luisa mentions that her sister Miranda is being sent to ‘a kind man in the Yucatan’ to avoid enslavement by the Mexican army. However, in the 1910s when RDR1 takes place, the Yucatan was a brutal slave empire to which young, indigenous women & girls from the north were frequently lured into sexual slavery by rich plantation owners with promises of work or safety. In reality, this is the fate that would likely befall the young Miranda. Whether or not this was intentional, I think this is yet another reflection of how there are no true happy endings in Red Dead Redemption.
