The sudden change in the Claimers attitude didn't rub her the wrong way, but she had cautious eyes on him, fingers grazing over the radio attached to her ankle. "Sure." Vix scoffed.

Robert's gaze never faltered, "I do. And I can prove it to you."

She then looked at him, curious yet suspicious.

"You see this winter has been especially cruel. A few months back, I- we had a huge group, doing something for a change. But we're attacked and we split. Still contacting yet it's difficult for us in the winter."

Vix had sat by the fire warming her hands and then turns the radio on for the other to listen as Robert continued his story.

"A few of my men went with the others. Only a few came back..." Robert explained, "It's crazy when he heard who killed them and also destroyed our foundation. A man named Negan and a little blonde girl."

Vix felt her heart jump out of her chest as Robert smirked deviously, almost sinisterly evil.

"You see? Everything happens for a reason."
