The Harrowed, the manitou, the hucksters are done;
The monsters fold up
And cash out one by one.
We must tell the stories so what was learned will live on
Since those that fought them
Themselves too are gone.
The Reckoning changed everything on July 4th, 1863. What happened exactly remains shrouded in legend, even after only fifteen years... but the world was broken. The Reckoners woke up, and they don't truck with the ways of men.
Now it’s 1879, and the Reckoners’ plans are going nicely. Though a cease-fire has stalled the War Between the States, the Great Rail Wars are once more picking up steam. The Indians fight against the white men and each other, abandoning the Old Ways and forsaking the nature spirits. The dead rise from their graves and strange beasts roam the terrain.
It is the job of the Texas Rangers to hold them back.
