Alexandria had been peaceful as ever. They had their losses, and they had their gains. The world was a treacherous place.

Lori had settled in nicely. She lived in a small house with her father, and Dallas had found love with a young woman named Gloria Baile.

It was an uneventful day- until there was commotion at the gates. Guards shouted back and fourth, and finally, they brought in two lonely survivors.

Rick had them quarantined, then placed under guard. A couple, a man and a young woman. Both of them obviously worn by the world, neither of them seemed to have much hope. Nonetheless Rick gave them jobs. He placed the young woman under Lori’s care, and he placed the man under Daryl’s care.

It was the first official day of them being allowed out in the camp. Daryl and his scavenging party- Glenn, Abraham, Rosita, and Michonne all went out with the man to find food.

That left the young woman under Lori’s care. She hummed softly as they walked through the gardens. “Tell me about yourself. Where’d you come from? That man, who is he to you?”
