The time was different in every part of the world.
In some countries, people were waking up to the news. In others, they had stayed awake through the night, following every development since Adrian Moretti's unexpected appearance.
But one thing was certain.
The emergency virtual conference had concluded.
And the United Nations Security Council had released a series of statements that would change the future of one of the world's largest corporations.
Television networks interrupted their regular programming as the official documents were made public.
"Following the emergency session attended by world leaders, the United Nations Security Council has announced a series of unprecedented measures against Horizon Biotech and the mercenary organization known as WEB."
The news anchor paused as the first document appeared on the screen.
