The father is dead
It turns out his wounds were more severe than he'd thought. Cube, the demon butler is the one who interacts with the townsfolk for you, and possibly with your daughter, as well.
 * It's possible he just strolled out of Hell; it's only a few miles outside town, anyway.
 * She is your daughter and you've come back from the grave to raise her.
 * Or this is your task in Purgatory.

Everyone is dead
...and in purgatory.
