Western
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.
Author's Note: Set within the world of Red Dead Redemption 2, all major characters are available. Be sure to check the World History area in the bottom right of the world map. Look for Class Loadouts in "The Closet" POI, and give yourself a copy of that inventory to start your journey. This world features working train systems, and if you @ the train system you want to use, you can then ask Franz to ride them. More information is available in the World History area.

Description
This desolate area is marked by the remnants of a long-lost cattle drive, where the snow still holds the echoes of the past. Locals tell tales of the brave cowhands who vanished in the blizzard, their spirits said to wander the frozen fields, searching for their lost herd. The landscape is dotted with the skeletal remains of cattle, frozen in time, serving as a haunting reminder of the failed drive.
Appearance
The fields are blanketed in a thick layer of snow, with the outlines of cattle and cowhands barely visible beneath the surface. Ghostly figures can sometimes be seen drifting through the mist, their forms flickering like candle flames in the cold air.
