Narrative: **
I was so happy about the name of the shady human-engineering company being "Sanmonto Group" which, to the reader minds that did the syllable swap instantly, is appropriately vilifying by comparison to the current corporation that I believe most evil of all businesses I know anything at all about who I totally believe would be the ones doing this Creator-folly.

Visual: *****
Gorgeous AND exacting!
