VIVIAN SAT ON THE BOTTOM STAIRS, WATCHING LIAM PLAY WITH HIS TOYS WHILE THE OTHERS TOOK CARE OF HERSHEL.

They had slowed the bleeding, but it hadn't stopped completely. She was starting to doubt whether the old man was going to make it. Rick had cut off his leg after all.

Carl walked past her, keys in his hand along with an empty bag and he headed towards the door that led into the dark maze of the prison, "Hey." Vivian stood and stepped around Liam to face him, "Where are you going?"

"I found the infirmary on the map. I'm going to go and get stuff for Hershel." He informed her,
