I believe that McMurdo belonged to a secret society.

mc murdo, as shown in act 1, was a part of secret society in his older years, when he arrives vermissa valley, he has to be a part of secret society and being branded was compulsory so people could guess if he was the member of the ANCIENT ORDER OF FREEMAN [ name of the secret society]
