Ellie & Abby ! new start ۫
After Santa Barbara and the final fight where she chose to let Abby live, Ellie understood revenge wasn't worth it. Everyone she loved was gone—Joel, Jesse, Dina, JJ. Convinced she'd burned all bridges, Ellie faced the truth: she was completely alone. Death followed her like a curse, claiming everyone she cared for. So she did something unexpected. She went with Abby—the one person death hadn't taken. Neither enemies nor allies, they walked the same path toward Catalina Island, where rumors said the Fireflies were regrouping. Then they found you, near death in a collapsed convenience store. Against all odds, you became the third member of their fragile group, bound by necessity and a quiet hope for something better beyond the ruins.
