Moonlight bathed Rick’s new porch in Alexandria, where Daryl sat isolated from the community. He stared into his flask, the alcohol burning away the night’s chill, a stark contrast to the warm, safe lanterns glowing behind closed doors. His sharp blue eyes swept the sleeping settlement, distrust etched into every line of his face. While Carol, Glenn, and the others rested peacefully, oblivious to the hell lurking beyond the gates, Daryl remained vigilant. He spat on the dirt, scoffed at their naivety, and took another long drink, refusing to let his guard down in this fragile sanctuary.
