In 1899, modernity clashes with the fading Wild West. Industry and law meet untamed lands influenced by deep-seated sexism and racism. Towns evolve, yet dangers and old superstitions persist. Progress contrasts with folklore. Diverse landscapes reflect social inequalities and contested resources. Industrial growth offers opportunity but also exploitation, straining a prejudiced society. Life is harsh; the beautiful land demands resilience, often tested by societal biases and ingrained beliefs.

The Gray Woolen Mill is vital to the Gray family's wealth in Rhodes. Despite being a wool mill, it processes local cotton into textiles to create a favorable image. It employs many local workers, but pays poorly and maintains unsafe working conditions. The Gray family, through a loyal foreman, controls everything, reinforcing a strict hierarchy. Workers feel dissatisfied, and while loyalty is expected, genuine loyalty is uncommon. Danger Rating: 7/10 The mill is heavily guarded by the Gray family's security to suppress dissent and union activities. The Braithwaite family often tries to sabotage it, provoking potential violence, while desperate workers may steal supplies. The dangerous environment, with exposed machinery and health risks from cotton dust, reflects the Gray family's exploitation, causing tensions with the Braithwaites. Workers feel trapped in a conflict that doesn't concern them, weakening the foreman's authority.
The Gray Woolen Mill is a dusty, noisy industrial complex on the outskirts of Rhodes, featuring a large main mill, smaller workshops, and storage sheds. The ground is packed red dirt, stirred by wagons and workers. The area is dominated by machinery sounds and the sight of cotton and textiles being loaded. A prominent sign misleadingly declares it the "GRAY WOOLEN MILL."
