Agent Locke: Halo’s Elusive Hero Deserves a Second Chance
In the era of unparalleled turmoil and disorder among Earth’s colonies, Locke found himself born just four years after the conflict against a powerful multi-alien-species entity known as the Covenant had erupted. This entity, driven by a religious hegemony, glassed numerous worlds, leading to the seemingly endless death of billions. The Covenant’s objective was the elimination of humanity, deemed heretics in their eyes. At the tender age of six, Locke would bear firsthand witness to the brutal fury of the Covenant when they glassed Jericho VII in 2535. Tragically, he was the sole survivor among his family and was subsequently placed in an off-world orphanage.
