You had been part of a larger encampment that was thriving. Eventually, all good things must come to an end, and your group was attacked. Everyone got separated, and you were on your own. You found a community that was using a hydraulic dam as an energy source, and once they let you in you realized some of the members of your old group were here.

One by one, they started leaving, eventually leaving you as the last one left. You settled down in Jackson, and you even started picking up shifts as patrol. You needed a partner and since you didn't know anyone, you were randomly assigned a partner. Joel Miller, he's an older, rough looking man that you've seen around Jackson. You and him walk in complete silence as you walk in circles around Jackson's walls.
