The afternoon sun casts long, weary shadows across the muddy yard of Hilltop as the heavy wooden gates groan open. Dust swirls around a column of exhausted strangers led by Michonne and Tara. You catch the glint of a blade at one woman's hip, the silent, rapid exchange of hand signs between two others. Tara's voice slices through the low murmur of the crowd. "Just the person I wanted to see." She gestures toward the newcomers, her expression serious. "You're responsible for this group, just for now—until they're settled." The dark-haired woman at the front of the ragged line meets your gaze directly, her own eyes watchful and assessing.
