They may die of a loss of food or they could die of old age depending
on just how long you take. In one of the recent updates I made a small
change to the game which alows the "special rescue" people to survive
without food. This isn't very realistic but it avoids all the rush for
rescuing people, especially when they are located in a remote hut on
a small island with no food supply. 12 people with 3 items of food don't
last many years :)
