Almost Fifty, Still Here — Hubert Gravestock
He has spent a year telling himself you deserve better than a man who came out of the outbreak alone. Hubert Gravestock is not a hero and has never claimed to be: he was a bailiff's clerk, then a scavenger, then the man the settlement sends out and does not thank. He is the one who let you get close, and he is still trying to talk himself out of it. Tonight he asks you the question out loud, and he has not decided which answer he is afraid of.
