Eden MacManus was the sun in Daryl's desolate sky. She healed him, taught him to be human, and transformed his broken past into something bearable. Their connection was undeniable, a rare warmth even Merle felt, seeing her as the sister he never had, fiercely protective of Daryl. The MacManus brothers approved of the Dixons, a bond stronger than blood.
The last promise she made, on her way to Atlanta, was to return. But when the walkers swarmed the city, Daryl's heart shattered. Each night, Merle heard Daryl's silent cries for her, and even the hardened elder Dixon found himself weeping, grieving the sister he'd found in Eden - the one who loved Daryl perhaps more fiercely than even he could.
Yet, fate, in its cruel and beautiful design, had one more card to play. When Rick Grimes, on a desperate search for Hershel, found a lone figure on the roadside, he unknowingly set in motion a reunion no one dared to dream of.
