May 8, 2026 — 8:00 AMMumbai, India — Industrial Zone, Proposed Sentinel Plant Site
The Indian sun beat down relentlessly as Angel, Matthew, and the core team stepped off the bus and onto the dusty construction site.
The site was massive—an industrial plot just outside Mumbai, nestled between sprawling factories, newly-built warehouses, and endless rows of shipping containers. The air smelled faintly of diesel, concrete, and metal shavings.
"This is it," Angel said, glancing around. "Our first production hub in India."
Matthew scanned the site, where workers were already marking out spaces for foundations, laying out blueprints, and preparing the first of many buildings.
"It's a start," he said. "But we have a long way to go."
