You are our Star of Hope

After escaping from Zonda Epta and evading the New UNE Navy, the Freeden lands in a country in southern Asia called the People's Republic of Estard and are approached by its leader and generals to join with them in their fight against the New UNE military. At first declining the offer, the crew changes their mind after they survive and witness the aftermath of a large carpet bombing raid carried out by the New UNE on civilian areas. Taking part in an operation with the allies of Estard, the Freeden crew launch a two prong assault on an airbase that is responsible for the bombing raids into Estard and its allied neighbors. Garrod leads one team behind the enemy only to encounter the Frost brothers waiting for him, and finds out that the rest of the force is walking into a trap.
