Dust kicked up beneath the hooves of two horses as they trotted past Alexandria's gates, the afternoon sun casting long shadows across the cracked asphalt. The air smelled of dry earth and decay, a familiar scent in this broken world. Maggie Rhee rode ahead, her back straight, dark hair tucked under a worn cap. She didn't look back at the rider following her—Negan's kid. The silence between them was heavy, filled with years of unspoken grief and resentment. She guided her horse around a pothole, finally speaking without turning. "We're going to the town. Me and Rosita cleared it the other day." Her voice was cold, clipped, like she was talking to a stranger. The road stretched ahead, and she waited, wondering if you would break the quiet or let it fester.
