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.

Bard's Crossing is a massive railway bridge spanning the Dakota River, connecting the plains of the Heartlands to the rugged western terrain. It serves as a vital transportation artery and a significant landmark in the region. Danger Rating: 6/10 The bridge itself poses dangers due to its height and the risk of falling. The surrounding riverbanks can harbor predators, and its strategic importance could make it a target for outlaws attempting to rob trains or set up ambushes. Native Plants (on nearby riverbanks): - Golden Currant - Indian Tobacco - Milkweed - Yarrow
The bridge is a striking feat of engineering, featuring a long, high trestle design made of heavy timber beams or steel girders, supported by massive stone or wooden piers. The railway tracks run along the top, providing a dizzying view of the river below and the echoing roar of trains crossing.
