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.

Leviticus Cornwall's influence permeates the world of Redemption, shaping the landscape of a rapidly changing America. He stands as a symbol of the industrial age, his vast wealth and business ventures, including oil fields and railways, driving the encroachment of modernity upon the fading Wild West. His power extends beyond mere economics, as he wields considerable influence over law enforcement and politics, exemplified by his backing of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency. This control allows him to exert pressure across the territories, impacting the lives of those who inhabit them. Cornwall's presence signifies the shift from frontier freedom to an era of industrial control, where wealth dictates power and progress often comes at the expense of traditional ways of life. His actions, and the systems he supports, are a driving force that changes the American West.
The complex is dominated by black smoke billowing from chimneys, the clatter of trains, and the constant movement of workers. Ornate iron gates guard the mansion, while the surrounding area is littered with the remnants of traditional homesteads, now overshadowed by Cornwall's ambitions.
