The Great Ellie-to-Seattle Odyssey: A Journey Measured in Snacks and Zombie Slayings
Ah, Ellie. The poster child for post-apocalyptic angst and impressive head-stabbing techniques. In The Last of Us Part II, our favourite grumpy heroine decides to take a little trip from Jackson, Wyoming to Seattle, Washington. But how long did this epic journey actually take? Buckle up, because we're about to dive into the fascinating world of Ellie's travel itinerary (or lack thereof).

The Evidence is Sketchy at Best
QuickTip: Read actively, not passively.
The game itself is a bit tight-lipped on the exact timeframe. There are no handy dandy airport departure and arrival boards (shocking, I know). We do have some clues, however. Think of them as breadcrumbs Ellie left behind for us obsessive fans to chase after.
Dina's Delightful Diary: Ellie's travel buddy, Dina, keeps a journal. Within its pages, we find hints of a multi-week journey. There's talk of "a bitch scar" forming on a certain someone's face (ouch!), suggesting some time for healing. Dina even mentions morning sickness, which (congratulations, Dina!) points towards an early pregnancy and, by extension, a trip that wasn't exactly a weekend getaway.
The Tyranny of Terrain: Let's not forget they weren't exactly zipping down the interstate in a Tesla. Our intrepid duo braved the post-apocalyptic wilderness, likely on horseback. Anyone who's ever ridden a horse for more than ten minutes knows that's not exactly a speed demon. Those infected hordes and resource scavenging stops don't exactly help shave time off the trip either.
The Verdict: A Wild Guess (Educated, of Course)
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.

Putting the clues together, it's safe to say Ellie's journey took somewhere in the ballpark of two to three weeks. This isn't an exact science, mind you. There's always the chance they stumbled upon a magical horse with a built-in nitrous oxide tank, but hey, that's the beauty of video games, right?
QuickTip: Pay attention to first and last sentences.
