[quote=Larfleeze] *How did she survive with no combat skills when the raiders came? It's been eleven years since the outbreak, surely she would have gained some combat experience. Even with another person there would have been several individuals with weapons ** She wouldn't know about mr. pink's character since he was in Russia at the time, if you were saying this from an out of universe perspective then just change it to "managed to avoid the blight that killed off other farmers." [/quote] 1. In my first post it will show that she almost starved to death when raiders came because she had to hide for days. You could be right that she would have developed some kind of combat skills, though. I'll reconsider. 2. She doesn't know about mr. pink's character, that was an out of universe comment just to not make her story clash with his.
