After completing the main quest, I flew back to the base flying the Sunwing, narrowly avoiding death during a glider test. Inside, Aloy held a tense meeting with Sylens and Tilda. Despite the high animosity between the two, Aloy forced them to cooperate and assigned them rooms within the base.
And I'm sharing them for Gaming Photography Weekly Contest.
The main quest, the Wings of the Ten, was finally completed and I felt a sense of accomplishment as the battle ended. I had to return to the base to share the news, so I called my mount to the high cliffs.
The Sunwing pulled me up on its back and I started flying away, leaving the Grove behind as the wind rushed past me.
I tried to check if I could glide down after jumping off the machine to see how much air I could catch. I died at the first try, I didn't understand why. On the second attempt, Aloy used the pullcaster to get back to the machine mid-air. I didn't try it again.
On my way to the mountain, I accidentally disturbed some big machines wandering on the ground level below. They started shooting me with heavy weaponry that I had to dodge anyhow to keep the Sunwing in the air.
Then I focused on the big mountain where our base was situated, keeping my eyes on the distant horizon. The flight was long, but it gave me time to process the events of the day and prepare for the conversations ahead.
After getting to the mountain, I flew to the Sunwing site where I intended to land and rest my mount. The Sunwings in the area immediately started attacking me.
As I don't yet know how to attack while flying this machine, or if I even have this ability, I had to find another way to handle the situation. I jumped off the machine and let it fight on its own against the wild attackers.
After getting inside the base, Erend met Aloy with a frustrated look. He said Mr. Know-it-all, aka Sylens, was there and waiting to speak with her. As he didn't know what to do with the man, he sent him to wait in Aloy's room.
Aloy wanted to meet Sylens in person to see what he wanted after all the trouble he had caused. It looked like he finally found a door he could open without her, standing in the middle of the room. He didn't offer any apology for his intrusion, simply waited for the conversation to begin.
Then Sylens asked Aloy about her plans for the Zenith base and how they would use the new technology. Aloy warned him about betraying her again, making it very clear that his life depended on his loyalty to this cause.
Aloy invited Tilda as well, who came over to join the meeting, and the room became hot as Sylens still saw her as an enemy and a threat to his own ambitions.
It looked like they were about to start a fight right there. Aloy interrupted them before they could strike. I am starting to guess that Tilda is actually using Aloy to get to Sylens' weapon that has the power to defeat the Zeniths.
After stopping them from a fight, Aloy asked them to go talk to Erend and tell him that Aloy said to give them rooms of their own. While they were going out, Sylens stopped to give the lady a way out fast in a show of false politeness. But Tilda asked Sylens to go out first.
So, "Ladies First" didn't work well there.
The next post will be coming soon. Screenshots are my take from the game and I took the game logo that I used on the thumbnail picture from online.
SEE YOU.
