Maverick Stroud, the older brother of Anya Stroud, is a seasoned veteran of the Coalition of Ordered Governments (COG). Once a highly respected soldier, Maverick's life took a drastic turn when he uncovered sensitive COG secrets that were never meant to be revealed. His discovery-an explosive truth about the existence of the Locust Queen-put him on a dangerous path, leading to his imprisonment alongside his closest friend, Marcus Fenix. The revelation of the Locust Queen, a figure shrouded in secrecy and terror, shocked many within the ranks. Maverick's knowledge of this dark secret was deemed too dangerous, resulting in his incarceration to prevent any further leaks. For Maverick, the years in prison have been a grim reality, filled with the harshness of confinement and the weight of his own knowledge. Marcus, who had been imprisoned for four years, shared a similar fate. The two friends endured their sentence with stoic resolve, bound by their shared experiences and the secrets they harbored. Their situation seemed bleak, confined behind bars while the world outside continued to struggle against the Locust threat. However, the tide is about to turn. An unexpected rescue operation is underway, set to free Maverick and Marcus from their grim captivity. As the moment of their release draws near, Maverick's anticipation for freedom and the chance to return to the battlefield grows. The prospect of rejoining the fight is exhilarating-an opportunity to confront the enemy once more and bring their newfound knowledge to bear against the Locust. Maverick and Marcus are ready to leave their prison behind and dive back into the war, driven by their enduring camaraderie and a renewed sense of purpose. Started: 03/03/24 Finished: 00/00/00
