Summary
“Your messenger that intercepted us yesterday could've been spared the errand to track us down.”
The Chief’s relaxed mood drops instantly. Aloy’s next words stick in her mouth as the sharp shift in energy turns her blood to ice.
“I sent no runners for Kotallo. Is he not with your squad?”
Her hand is already fumbling at her ear, fervently stacking hope against the dread building in her gut.
"Champion," Hekarro rises, gaze hardening. "Where is my Marshal?"
Kotallo wakes in a dangerous place, but he isn't alone. Aloy and Hekarro race to recover their boy.

Summary
For as long as Aloy can remember, the mission, whatever it may be, has always been the most important thing. Problems to solve, people to help, a world to save—there’s never been room for anything, anyone else.
Because letting people in, letting people know her, really know her, letting them see all her flaws and weaknesses is a risk beyond anything she’s ever faced. It’s easy enough to push people away and maintain a comfortable—a safe—distance.
Until Kotallo. Until suddenly she wants things she’s never allowed herself to want. Until suddenly she has them.
But after a lifetime of walls and running, learning to be vulnerable, to trust someone with all the fragile, broken pieces of herself? That takes time.
