章 63: Chapter 63: The Shadow’s Grip

 The Alliance headquarters was abuzz with activity as Sophia and her team delved deeper into the mystery of The Broker. Reports from the field trickled in, each one adding another piece to the puzzle, but the full picture remained elusive. The Broker's network was vast and intricate, a web of deceit that stretched far beyond Alboran.

In her office, Sophia reviewed the latest intelligence. The Broker had been careful, leaving no direct ties to their true identity or location. However, a pattern was beginning to emerge. A series of seemingly unrelated conflicts in resource-rich regions around the world had all been stoked by mercenaries similar to those in Alboran. The Broker had been sowing discord wherever they saw an opportunity for profit.
