#basically im imagining her going through records in an old pre war bunker with some of the others

Was thinking about whether it would be possible or not for Darryl to ever figure out for sure what happened to her son, and one thought in particular that I've been chewing on is her going through some old world gov. facility, or maybe an abandoned enclave bunker, someplace from before the war that would've had a lot a high profile - or at least people with a lot of power - working there, and digging up records on herself. Specifically, stuff about her combat abilities, military history, possible loyalties or leanings, as well as stuff that makes it pretty clear that they see her as a threat, or at least make it clear that the people who put the documents together didn't like her

And then a little further down she finds explicit documentation detailing how someone or some people had been ordered to abduct and get rid of her son in order to compromise her and make sure he wasn't found, followed then by a series of photos of the kid before, during, and after said abduction/homicide
