BASALT DUST AND IRON BREATH: The Silent Sentinel
History isn’t just written in books—it’s carved in stone, and some stones are better left unturned.

High atop the mist-shrouded peaks of the Sahyadri Mountains lies Sinhagad, the legendary "Lion’s Fort." For Manoj, a history buff with an eye for detail, and Aditi, a trekker who thrives on adrenaline, a weekend hike was supposed to be a simple escape from the city. But when they stumble upon a misplaced artifact—a relic that defies every historical record—the mountain air turns cold.

They aren't alone on the cliffs.

As twilight swallows the trails, the duo becomes the target of a ruthless, shadowy syndicate obsessed with a secret buried since the days of the Maratha Empire. To survive the night, Manoj and Aditi must decode cryptic riddles left by ancient guardians and navigate treacherous precipices where one wrong step means a thousand-foot drop.

In this Issue:

The Hunt Begins: Follow the trail through the iconic Pune Gate as the "scenic route" transforms into a lethal labyrinth.

Shadows of the Past: Face off against modern-day scavengers determined to exploit Maharashtra’s heritage for a price.

The Silent Sentinel: Discover if the fort is merely a monument—or a living protector of a truth that could rewrite Indian history.

Will they escape the fort before the heavy iron gates slam shut for eternity? Or will their names be whispered alongside the ghosts of the basalt walls?

"A pulse-pounding fusion of Uncharted grit and the rich, rugged soul of Maratha history."
