Creator's Notes: There are at least three parts planned: A Grey Matter, White Lies, and Blackout. Unfortunately I only got the first one done for this month. This is meant to be one story, but due to length I have to split it into two parts.

Although I have this set as a Walking Dead fusion, there are homages to other zombie movies.

This story does borrow some of my own headcanon and 'verse stories as depicted in some previous fanworks (such as A Reunion in Dor Dínen), but it's not necessary to read them to understand this fic.

Proof-read by myself, so there may still be typos throughout.
Summary: Aredhel runs across trouble after leaving Gondolin. Luckily, she is prepared.
